Bellamer / houseboat builders; cover, cost and conditions

Floating holiday homes from German houseboat builders sit between boat and building: they lie permanently at their berth, have shore connections for electricity, water and waste water, and only in some cases an auxiliary engine. Legally they remain watercraft, which is why we insure them under hull insurance for boats, but the risks are those of a building.

The connections are the point where most damage arises. A faulty water connection, a leaking waste water pipe or a short circuit on the shore power supply are the typical cases. They are covered if the installation was carried out properly, so keep the invoices from the installation company. When water enters, the first question is whether the work was carried out properly, and the answer is on that invoice.

In a furnished holiday home the contents regularly exceed the value of the hull. Personal effects are included free of charge up to three per cent of the sum insured, a minimum of 1,000 and a maximum of 3,000 euros in Basis-Plus, 6,000 in Premium, and for a complete fit-out that is not enough. Declare the kitchen, furniture, electronics and heating as separate items and update them after every addition.
