Worth knowing
Chantier Poncin; cover, cost and conditions
Chantier Poncin is the yard behind the Harmony yachts and is listed with 6 models, all sailing yachts. The range covers the Harmony 31, 34, 38, 42, 47 and 52. Recorded build years run from 2001 to 2016, lengths from 9.9 to 16.1 m.
Harmony yachts are cruisers for coastal passages and longer voyages. Two points matter for insurance: the cruising area must match the passages you plan, because a loss outside the agreed area is not covered. And the state of rig and shrouds counts, because material fatigue is treated as wear and is not covered.
NAMMERT insures Harmony yachts regardless of build year and place of purchase, including boats bought directly in France. If the boat is chartered out, that must be stated in the policy, because changing skippers alter the risk. You can calculate the premium for liability and hull cover in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
What changes if I charter out my yacht?
Charter is commercial use. Liability towards guests, changing skippers and more operating hours are added. That belongs explicitly in the policy, otherwise the basis is missing after a loss.
How often should the rig be overhauled?
There is no fixed requirement; 15 to 20 years is usual. For insurance the rule is: a failure through material fatigue is wear, a failure caused by an event is covered.

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.
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.
