Everard Insurance Brokers
Everard and Sons Ltd. was one of the biggest names in British and European coastal shipping, with a fleet of over 450 owned, managed and chartered craft, including sailing, steam and motor ships plus tugs and harbour craft. Based at Greenhithe on the Thames, where it had its own repair and rebuilding facilities, Everard coasters traded to Europe and sometimes beyond. In addition to the fleet of steam motor-driven dry cargo craft and tankers, Everard also had a significant tug fleet.
