Dive Equipment Insurance?

With the toys getting more and more expensive, I've decided that the time
has come to invest in some half decent dive equipment insurance. I need it
to cover such items as my video enclosure + camcorder (£1600), lighting
system (£750) and my dive computer (£800). Anyone recommend a good value
insurance policy that doesn't mess you around too much when it comes to a
claim?

I have £11K of cover with DiveMaster. (CCR, cameras, computers et. al.)
I know they were helpful when I set things up and again when I wanted to
add things but I don't know what they're like in the claim side as I've
been lucky so far.

Note that according to the leaflet that came with my Stoney Cove
Diverlog, divers thus registered get a 10% discount on "direct purchase
price of Dive Master Insurance annual products".

Cheers Nigel - I shall check them out! Does the policy in question have a
name? ie. DiveMaster Equipment Insurance or something equally as obvious?
Out of interest, how much is your annual premium for the kit you have?
