Blu Martin; cover, cost and conditions

Blu Martin is an Italian motor yacht brand founded in 2001 by Francesco Mauri, who had spent more than twenty years in powerboat building before going out on his own. In 2013 the brand passed to Sea Engineering S.r.l. Hulls are laid up in vinylester resin with multiaxial glass, with balsa-cored sides and superstructure. The ST prefix and a sporty profile with open cockpit and hardtop mark them out. On the later models the number after ST is roughly the length in feet; on the ST 13.90 it is the length in metres.

Our records list six Blu Martin designs, all motor yachts. The Suntop 1350 comes first in 2002 and runs to 2012, followed by the ST 13.90 from 2003, the S.T. 55 from 2004 to 2015, the ST 58 from 2008, the ST 48 from 2010 and the ST 52 from 2011. Four lines, the ST 13.90, 48, 52 and 58, run up to the most recent build years. Lengths go from 13.5 metres for the Suntop 1350 to 17.3 metres for the ST 58.

These are berth boats with serious engines, at home in Mediterranean marinas and on coastal runs between harbours. Owners tend to fit generators, air conditioning and bow thrusters, which all want regular servicing before the season. A balsa-cored structure should be checked for moisture around deck fittings, and a lift-out in autumn gives the running gear and the hull a proper look.

What this means for the cover

As the Blu Martin ST 13.90, Blu Martin ST 48,

Blu Martin ST 52 by Blu Martin and 1 more series are 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.

For the S.T.

55' and Blu Martin Suntop 1350 by Blu Martin series 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.

For the Blu Martin ST 13.90, Blu Martin ST 48, Blu Martin ST 52 by Blu Martin and further series:

On motor yachts the drive and the electronics together make up about half the value.

Both belong in the valuation, otherwise the sum insured is too low.
