Worth knowing
Bölte; cover, cost and conditions
Five model ranges are recorded: the motor yachts Baronesse, Duchesse and Comtesse with years of construction between 1965 and 1976 as well as the sailing yachts Fähnrich and Fähnrich 34, whose construction began in 1960 and ended in 1986. Further information about the yard is not available, and we add nothing at this point.
Insurance cover does not end at the jetty. It applies in winter storage, during craning, launching and on the transport route. There limited hull cover covers fire, storm, lightning strike and theft of the entire boat, full hull cover additionally collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts including the outboard.
The same framework applies to motor yacht and sailing yacht: third-party liability with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros as the basis, plus limited hull cover or full hull cover with an agreed value and indemnity with no deduction for depreciation (new for old). In the Premium tariff full hull cover applies with no age limit, and we insure regardless of year of construction, place of purchase and previous owners.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Is my boat insured in winter storage ashore as well?
Yes. Cover applies in winter storage as well as during craning, launching and on the transport route. There limited hull cover covers fire, storm, lightning strike and theft of the entire boat.
Can a Comtesse and a Fähnrich 34 be treated in the same way?
The framework of cover is the same, only the calculation factor differs: on the motor yacht the engine power, on the sailing yacht the sail area. The brand does not enter into the premium.

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 sailing yachts the rig and the underwater hull are the expensive parts: a dismasting quickly costs a quarter of the boat, and osmosis counts as wear and is covered by no hull policy.
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.
