Worth knowing
Bry Owen; cover, cost and conditions
Bry Owen is listed with 7 models, all motorboats. The range included the Sea-Boat 410, 445 and 468, the Windsor, the Sussex, the Marlborough and the Victor 20. Recorded build years run from 1970 to 1979, lengths from 4.1 to 6.2 m.
All of these boats are around fifty years old today. At that age condition decides the value, not the build year. A well kept or restored boat with a new engine is worth far more than the table figure, a neglected one less. An agreed fixed value based on photographs, invoices or a survey settles that in advance.
NAMMERT insures these boats regardless of build year and of where they were bought. As they are trailerable, transport, time ashore and theft belong in the hull cover. You can calculate the premium for liability and hull cover in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Can a boat from 1975 still be insured?
Yes. Build year is not a reason for exclusion. What matters is condition, value and cruising area. For very old boats we recommend an agreed fixed value so that the sum insured is documented.
Is hull cover worthwhile on such an old boat?
That depends on the combined value of boat, engine and trailer. If a newer outboard is fitted it usually is. On an old boat without a significant engine, liability cover alone is often enough.
The cover that fits
