Worth knowing
Bootswerft Nordrhein; cover, cost and conditions
Bootswerft Nordrhein is listed with 16 models, mostly sailing yachts. The yard is known for the Phantom range, running from the Phantom 23 through 25, 28, 30, 31, 32, 34 and 35 to the Phantom 38, joined by the Combinata, the Nordia 25 and the Formel 24 motorboat. Build years run from 1967 to 1994, lengths from 6.9 to 12 m.
Phantom yachts are solid cruisers from a time when composite hulls were still laminated very thick. Many are sailing unchanged after forty years. For insurance that means a depreciated book value does not represent a well kept ship, whereas an agreed fixed value does. The state of rig and shrouds also matters, because material fatigue is a wear case and not covered.
NAMMERT insures Phantom yachts regardless of build year and of where they were bought. For passages in the North Sea and the Baltic the cruising area should be chosen accordingly. You can calculate the premium for liability and hull cover in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
How old may a rig be?
There is no fixed limit; an overhaul after roughly 15 to 20 years is usual. What decides is the condition: a failure through material fatigue counts as wear and is not covered, whereas a failure caused by an event is.
Can my Phantom from 1980 still be insured?
Yes. Build year is not a reason for exclusion. What matters is condition, value and cruising area. For ships of that age we recommend a survey and an agreed fixed value.

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 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.
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part. Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
On boats this size the condition of rig and fittings decides. A dismasting is covered, worn terminals after years are not.
