Always on course with the boat hull insurance

With a boat insurance, you insure against damages worldwide, which can prove to be particularly cost-intensive. Typical examples are:

  • losses due to natural events such as storms, hail and lightning
  • damage caused by fire
  • damage through theft and vandalism
  • damage due to ground contact
  • damage due to collisions
  • damage caused by osmosis

All this and much more will be reliably covered by the right boat hull insurance. While sailing there was a sudden blow under the yacht and afterwards the drive was damaged? Basic damage is covered under the ship's insurance. Of course, there must be no gross negligence, such as not following the charts. In such a case the insurer can reduce the benefits of the pleasure craft hull.

Your boat was stolen? There was a sudden fire outbreak on board? Both are typical hull damages, which are optimally covered by the damage service of a boat hull insurance.
