Worth knowing
Bella / Flipper; cover, cost and conditions
Bella and Flipper are Finnish production brands for GRP boats between 5 and 9 metres, bowriders, console boats and day cruisers, mostly with an outboard. They are the classic family boats of the Nordic countries, robust and with a good resale value. This very resale value is the reason not to insure the boat on a depreciated value basis: used Bella and Flipper boats hold their price better than the depreciation table assumes.
With family boats one module comes into play that is overlooked on sports boats: the personal accident cover for the people on board. It pays in the event of disability and death regardless of the question of fault, even when nobody is liable, for example after a fall on board or while swimming from the boat. For family use with children on board, this is the module that closes the actual gap that third-party liability and hull insurance leave open.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
What does the personal accident cover include that third-party liability does not?
Third-party liability pays third parties when you are liable. The personal accident cover pays the people on board even without any liability, for example after a fall on board or while swimming from the boat.

For a series of this age there is no list price left. That is why we work with an agreed value: you state the figure, we agree it, and in a total loss exactly that amount is paid, with no deduction for wear.
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part. Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
As the series is still in production, parts are available and repair costs are predictable. Even so, value it at replacement cost including retrofitted electronics, not at list price.
For a series built in these years the market value and the replacement cost often differ widely. An agreed value removes the age-based scale, and the figure in the policy stands.
