Worth knowing
Vast Channel; cover, cost and conditions
One inflatable boat is listed, the Mini-Cruiser with years of construction from 1991 to 1998. With small boats too, the third-party liability forms the basis: it can be selected with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros, in the levels Basis, Basis-Plus and Premium.
A trailer is included in the boat insurance at no extra premium, and the cover applies during launching, during craning, in winter storage and on the transport route. Limited hull cover takes on fire, storm, lightning strike, theft of the entire boat and damage in winter storage.
For the premium, the type of boat, value, year of construction, engine power or sail area and the cruising range count. The brand does not enter into it. We accept boats from the nineties regardless of the year of construction, the place of purchase and previous owners, in full hull cover with an agreed value.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
How high should the limit of indemnity be?
The third-party liability can be selected with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros. Which level suits depends on the boat and its use, and the grading follows the tariffs Basis, Basis-Plus and Premium.
When is hull cover an issue for small boats?
That is your decision. Limited hull cover includes fire, storm, lightning strike and theft of the entire boat, and full hull cover additionally collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts.

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.
Series by Vast Channel, build years and cover
Mini-Cruiser is an inflatable without engine from Vast Channel, built from 1991 to 1998.
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.
Even without an engine the rule holds: a tear from impact or vandalism is covered, UV ageing is wear.
