Re/Max of Stuart

Special policy blank issued by an insured for individual shipments or other purposes under an open policy. The open policy allows an insured to buy protection for all marine business for an indefinite period. When required to show evidence of insurance for a particular shipment, or to protect the cargo or ship of a client, the insured may issue a certificate of insurance backed by his or her own overriding open policy.
