Beavertail Skiffs; cover, cost and conditions
Beavertail Skiffs is listed with 8 models, all motorboats. The range includes the 16 Micro and 16 Predator, the 17 Elite and 17 Strike, the 18 Air, 18 Mosquito and 18 Vengeance and the 20 Lightning. Build years run since 2018, lengths from 5 to 6.1 m.
Skiffs are extremely shallow draught fishing boats for sandbanks and shoals, with an open deck and casting platforms. That produces the most common expensive event: drive damage after grounding. Only comprehensive all risks hull cover catches it. The electric bow motor and the poling platform belong explicitly in the equipment list.
NAMMERT insures Beavertail boats regardless of build year and place of purchase, including imports from the USA. As these boats sit on a trailer almost all the time, transport, theft and storm damage ashore are the relevant building blocks. You can calculate the premium for liability and hull cover in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
What is a skiff?
A very shallow draught, light fishing boat with an open deck, often with a poling platform. For insurance what counts is length, engine power, value, equipment and cruising area.
Does hull cover pay for damage after grounding?
Under comprehensive cover yes. Restricted covers may exclude exactly that case, and on shallow water boats it is the most common one. So it is worth checking the scope of cover before signing.
