Is there such an animal as glider rental insurance which might cover a

You best bet would be to call folks like Costello Insurance and ask
then about what specifically you are after. Many of us who insure our
own gliders also carry renters insurance through insurance purchased
by people like Costello.

Last time I checked, if you're a private owner through the SSA Hull
Plan (Costello), then you have non-owner/renter insurance up to the
hull value of your sailplane as long as it's on flying coverage. If
you put it on ground cover over the winter, that coverage stops.
