Chaparral Signature 280: cover, cost and conditions
The Signature 280 / 290 model range ran from 1995 to 2014, the Chaparral Signature 280 belongs to it and is already sailing in our portfolio. Fifteen further Chaparral models are recorded with us. Across more than two decades of production that means very different years of construction, and all of them are insurable.
On a boat from such a long model range, the agreed value is decisive. We set the value before the contract starts, and in the event of a claim we pay with no deduction for depreciation. In the Premium tariff this applies without any age limit, so even a boat from the early years of the model range remains fully covered.
Collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts including the outboard belong to full hull cover. Limited hull cover bears fire, storm, lightning strike, theft of the entire boat and damage in winter storage. A boat trailer is covered by the third-party liability at no extra premium from Basis-Plus, provided it is named in the application with its value. You can add it to the hull cover for a premium.
