Worth knowing
Swallow Boats Ltd; cover, cost and conditions
The sailing boat BayRaider 20 and the motorboat Whisper 300 stand side by side, both listed since 2018 and to this day. Further ranges are not available. The premium accordingly follows the sail area in one case and the engine power in the other, to which value, year of construction and cruising range are added.
Small programmes often run in manageable numbers. Small series and home-built boats can be insured with us, even when no series value is available. We then agree an agreed value which is stated in the contract and paid out in the event of a claim with no deduction for depreciation (new for old).
Third-party liability with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros forms the basis in the levels Basis, Basis-Plus and Premium. Club races are included from Basis-Plus. A trailer is included at no extra premium, and cover applies during craning, launching and on the transport route.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Are boats from small production runs insurable?
Yes, we accept small series and home-built boats. The value is agreed as an agreed value, regardless of year of construction, place of purchase and previous owners, and paid in the event of a claim with no deduction for depreciation (new for old).
How is a sailing boat calculated compared with a motorboat?
On the sailing boat the sail area counts, on the motorboat the engine power. Type of boat, value, year of construction and cruising range enter into each, the brand never does.
The cover that fits
For the whole class of boat
What matters for sailing boats and sailing yachts is the same across every brand; engine output, how a claim is settled, cruising range and theft protection. The class page lists every point and every brand in this class.

Series by Swallow Boats Ltd, build years and cover
BayRaider 20 is a sailing boat from Swallow Boats Ltd, built since 2018.
Whisper 300 is a motorboat from Swallow Boats Ltd, built since 2018.
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.
On boats this size the condition of rig and fittings decides. A dismasting is covered, worn terminals after years are not.
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part. Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
