Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Does NAMMERT insure a Dateline Bounty?
Yes, the Bounty is insurable in its IB and OB variants at around 5 m length, despite build years from 1972.

With liability as the basis and hull cover with a fixed agreed value, so the agreed sum of the classic is preserved in a claim.

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.
