Worth knowing
Bopp & Dietrich GmbH; cover, cost and conditions
Bopp & Dietrich is listed with 6 models, mostly open sailing boats. The range includes the 15 cruising dinghy and the 20 Tourer, the O-Jolle, the Catboot, the Seerose and an electric motorboat. Build years run since 1991, lengths from 6.5 to 7.8 m.
Cruising dinghies and classic dinghies are boat types with a long tradition, often in wood or mixed construction and built in small numbers. For insurance that means value comes from construction, finish and condition, not from a series price. An agreed fixed value with an equipment list or a survey is the right route.
These boats are almost always trailered and stored ashore, and that is where a large share of the damage arises: launching, stepping the mast and winter storage. Make sure that transport and time on land are included in the hull cover. You can calculate the premium for liability and hull cover in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
What is a cruising dinghy?
A dinghy with a cabin and a retractable centreboard, intended for passages on inland waters with overnight accommodation on board. For insurance, length, value, construction and cruising area count.
Is my boat insured while launching and stepping the mast?
With hull cover that includes time ashore and transport, yes. On dinghies and cruising dinghies this matters, because a large share of the damage happens exactly then.

As the series is 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.
On boats this size the condition of rig and fittings decides. A dismasting is covered, worn terminals after years are not.
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part. Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
For a series built in these years 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.
