Participation in regattas can also be easily included for sailing boats.

 

Because you customise your boat hull insurance, you only pay for what you really need.

These questions may help you

The more valuable your boat is, the more important it is to have Hull Insurance to cover any damage. Hull Insurance therefore makes perfect sense to ensure that you are not stuck with the costs in the event of damage and can get back on the water quickly. In addition to the total loss of your boat, you can also insure against partial damage. Please also note that in many countries, e.g. Germany, there is no compulsory insurance for boats. This means that if your boat is damaged by a third party, liability insurance cannot always cover you. Private liability insurance does not usually cover damage to boats. 

Hull Insurance policies can vary greatly in price depending on their contents. We assess your boat individually in order to calculate fair conditions for the desired cover. Both the characteristics of your boat and the selected cover modules therefore have a major influence on your premium. A 4m fishing boat with an insured value of €6,500 can be insured for as little as €100 per year. For a sporty 32-foot sailing boat with an insured value of €45,000, comprehensive hull cover starts at an annual premium of around €400. 

Total loss is always included in the insurance. Partial damage, i.e. damage whose repair costs do not exceed the value of the boat, can also be included for an additional charge. You can insure the total loss with a fixed valuation (replacement value of the boat) or with a current value reimbursement. In the event of partial damage, reimbursement is possible with or without deductions for current value.
