Worth knowing
Honwave (Honda Marine); cover, cost and conditions
Honwave (Japan) belongs to the inflatables and RIBs class. For the insurance the builder is never a reason to decline: what decides is the type of boat, its year, its value, its engine output and the waters you sail, the five figures you enter in the online calculator.
Which cover suits a Honwave? Liability is the foundation and settles injury, property and financial damage to third parties with €10 m to €50 m. Hull cover protects your own boat: partial cover for fire, storm, lightning, theft of the whole boat and damage in winter storage; full cover adds collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts, the outboard included.
What does insurance for a Honwave cost? The premium starts from €49 a year for liability and follows value, year built, engine output or sail area, and cruising range. Full cover settles at the agreed value, with no deduction for new-for-old.
Bought used, imported, or ordered straight from the yard: we write Honwave with a berth in Germany and abroad alike. The international certificate of insurance reaches you automatically in ten languages, and taking cover out before the handover pays off; the launch and the road transport are then already covered.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Does NAMMERT insure boats built by Honwave?
Yes. The builder does not decide insurability here; type, value, year, output and cruising range do. We also write small series and home-built boats.
What does cover for a Honwave cost?
Cover starts from €49 a year for liability; the exact premium takes a few minutes in the online calculator.
How high should the liability sum be?
We write €10 m to €50 m. The higher sum costs little more and covers the one case that has no natural ceiling: injury to a person.
On a total loss, do I get the replacement value?
Under full cover, yes; at the agreed value, and in the Premium tariff without limit and with no deduction for new-for-old.
Can I switch from my existing insurer?
Yes. Our switching service cancels the old contract free of charge and you keep a permanent switching discount. You pay only once the old contract has run out.

Nautical information What counts before you cast off, papers, equipment, waters
Licence
Required inland and at sea from 15 hp (11.03 kW); below that, none.
Registration
Registration from 3 hp; carry the boat certificate on maritime shipping routes.
Waters
Inland lakes, the coast and the Wadden Sea, mind the tide tables and the fairway.
Equipment
Lifejackets, paddles, pump, repair kit, anchor gear and signalling equipment.
Cruising range
RIBs close to the coast; check air pressure before every trip and after temperature swings.
Weather
From Beaufort 4 the ride turns hard, and offshore wind sharply raises the risk of drifting.
General guidance, not a complete account; what governs are the rules of the waters you are on and your boat’s manual. Current wind force and direction for your waters are shown on the Home.

As the series is still in production, parts are available and repairs are predictable. Still, set the value at replacement cost, including sails, rigging or gear you bought later.
Even without an engine the rule holds: a tear from impact or vandalism is covered, UV ageing is wear.
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 an inflatable the cause decides, not the damage: a tear from impact is covered, porous fabric after years in the sun is not. The outboard belongs in the policy with its serial number.
For a series built in these years the market value and the replacement cost often differ widely. An agreed value removes the age-based scale, and the figure in the policy stands.
