APU’s Inland Marine program provides coverage for equipment critical to contractor operations including cranes, riggers, concrete pumpers and millwright with protection available for owned, rented, and borrowed equipment. Coverage will be written by specialists with 50 years combined inland marine experience.

“Contractors rely on their equipment to keep business moving, and when that equipment is at risk, so is their bottom line,” said Heather Frain, Senior Vice President and Head of Inland Marine at Amwins Program Underwriters. “This new offering positions us right at the intersection between efficiency and expertise, allowing us to identify gaps in coverage and quickly solve our clients’ needs.”

Distributed through Amwins brokers and retail partners, this program complements APU’s broader suite of construction-related offerings, including its crane & rigging general liability program. It provides admitted and non-admitted solutions backed by Sentry’s A+ rated paper.

“This partnership reinforces our commitment to helping our agents protect the most vital tools of the trade,” said Jon Beckham, president of APU. “We’re combining underwriting discipline with access to top-rated carriers like Sentry to bring smarter solutions to market and deliver the coverage contractors truly need.”

“Partnering with Amwins is a natural fit,” said Heather Schenker, Head of Specialty Insurance at Sentry. “This relationship aligns with our values of integrity, strength, and service and reflects our shared commitment to helping businesses protect their assets, reduce downtime, and get back to work quickly when the unexpected happens.”
