Worth knowing
Gel-Top A/S; cover, cost and conditions
Gel-Top A/S appears in the NAMMERT records with six models built between 1975 and 1987. The Aqua range covers motorboats and motor yachts from the Aqua 19 to the Aqua 37, joined by the sailing yachts Fandango 32, Karavel and Spar ES. Lengths sit between 5.7 and 11.2 m.
All documented Gel-Top boats date from the 1970s and 1980s: for such build years an agreed fixed value is the right approach, because the agreed sum applies in a claim and there is no debate about depreciation. Value and cruising area should be stated precisely for each model.

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 motor yachts the drive and the electronics together make up about half the value. Both belong in the valuation, otherwise the sum insured is too low.
On sailing yachts the rig and the underwater hull are the expensive parts: a dismasting quickly costs a quarter of the boat, and osmosis counts as wear and is covered by no hull policy.
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part. Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
On boats this size the condition of rig and fittings decides. A dismasting is covered, worn terminals after years are not.
