Trailer Insurance

[rpgk]

A previous thread prompted some questions with regard to insurance for trailers which I wonder if you guys could help with:

- Can you get insurance for a race trailer and it's contents? - The companies I have spoken to only want to insure the trailer, without contents, even then the insurance figure is pretty high.

- Do you need specific insurance to tow the trailer? My car insurance gives me third party cover in the event of an accident? If I wanted fully comp is this for the trailer or the driver? The reason I ask is that a couple of us take turns to either use the trailer or tow the car around. Would we both need separate insurance?
- In the event of an accident, who claims from what?

Hopefully the above makes sense and sorry if these sound like silly questions but haven't had much luck searching around.

Thanks in advance.

PS Edited to add my insurance covers me third party only - but not sure why original was double posted - could one of the mods please delete the other post - sorry!
