Worth knowing
Gesten Boats; cover, cost and conditions
Gesten Boats appears in the NAMMERT records with seven models built between 1977 and 2011. The defining line is the Mascot range: from the Mascot 25 via the Mascot 28, 910 and 33 up to the larger Mascot 35 DS and 43 DS. Lengths run from 7.5 to 13.1 m.
Many Mascot yachts date from the 1970s to 1990s: an agreed fixed value pays off here instead of pure current value cover, so the sum is settled in a claim. For cruising yachts of this size, value, equipment and cruising area also belong precisely in the application.
NAMMERT insures Gesten Boats yachts regardless of year of build and place of purchase. The premium for Gesten Boats insurance can be calculated in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.

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.
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.
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 boats this size the condition of rig and fittings decides. A dismasting is covered, worn terminals after years are not.
