Worth knowing
Bootsbau Franz Köhn; cover, cost and conditions
Bootsbau Franz Köhn is listed with 6 models, mostly open sailing boats. The range included the Catboat 17, 18 and 20, the Flatfish, the Haven 12½ and the Ragnar 26 sailing yacht. Recorded build years run from 2000 to 2008, lengths from 4.9 to 7.9 m.
These boats take up classic American and northern European designs and are built in small numbers, often with plenty of wood and careful workmanship. That is the decisive point for insurance: value comes from the finish, not from a series price. An agreed fixed value with an equipment list or a survey is therefore the right route.
NAMMERT insures Bootsbau Franz Köhn boats regardless of build year. As these boats are trailerable and often stored ashore, transport, time on land and theft belong in the hull cover. You can calculate the premium for liability and hull cover in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
