Worth knowing
Chris Somner; cover, cost and conditions
After the purchase of a used boat, disputes about defects arise quickly. Legal expenses cover for water sports can be included with NAMMERT and also applies in disputes with a shipyard. One sailing boat model range is on record under Chris Somner, the Yachting World Dayboat with years of construction from 1987 to 1993.
No further model ranges are on record, and production has been completed. That has no consequences for the contract, because cover is granted regardless of the year of construction, the place of purchase and previous owners. Full hull cover records the value as an agreed value and pays in the event of a claim with no deduction for depreciation ("new for old").
On a sailing boat the sail area determines the premium, not an engine power; added to this are type of boat, value, year of construction and cruising range. Club races are included from Basis-Plus upwards, and you state races with scoring status when taking out the policy. The boat trailer is included at no extra premium.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Does the insurance help in a dispute with the seller?
Legal expenses cover for water sports is offered alongside and covers disputes after the purchase of a used boat or with a shipyard. It supplements third-party liability, limited hull cover and full hull cover.
May I take part in club races with the boat?
Club races are included from the Basis-Plus tariff upwards. You state races with scoring status when taking out the policy, so that they are taken into account in the contract from the start.

Series by Chris Somner, build years and cover
Yachting World Dayboat is a sailing boat from Chris Somner, built from 1987 to 1993.
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 boats this size the condition of rig and fittings decides. A dismasting is covered, worn terminals after years are not.
