Worth knowing
Ahrens, Paul; cover, cost and conditions
Under the name Goofy, a sailing boat was built between 1967 and 1975; no further model ranges are on record for this brand. Production therefore lies far in the past. For cover this makes no difference, because we insure regardless of year of construction, place of purchase and previous owners and also take a boat from that period into full hull cover with an agreed value.
With a sailing boat, the premium is not based on the engine output but on the sail area. Added to this are type of boat, value, year of construction and cruising range. The name of the yard never feeds into the calculation. So for a Goofy you pay the same premium as for a comparable boat of different origin.
Third-party liability with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros forms the basis, and the tariff levels Basis, Basis-Plus and Premium build on it. Club races are included from Basis-Plus upwards; races with scoring status you declare when you take out the policy. A boat trailer is covered in the boat policy at no extra premium.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
How is a sailing boat from the 1960s rated?
Year of construction, sail area, value and cruising range determine the premium. A year of construction in the 1960s or 1970s does not rule out full hull cover; in the Premium tariff it applies with no age limit.
Does cover also apply outside the season?
Yes. Cover applies in winter storage, during craning, during launching and in transit. In hull cover there is no time window and no night clause.
