Worth knowing
Chavanne Yacht- & Bootswerft; cover, cost and conditions
Chavanne Yacht- und Bootswerft is listed with 10 models, 5 motor yachts and 5 motorboats. The range falls into the Ferstyle (750, 820, 730, Classic 700 and 1100), Alustyle (980 and 14500) and Workstyle (610, Weidling and standard) lines. Recorded build years run from 1985 to 2005, lengths from 6.1 to 14 m.
On the Alustyle models the aluminium hull is the defining feature. Aluminium is robust and light but reacts sensitively to galvanic corrosion, for instance with stray current in the harbour or used up anodes. Corrosion counts as wear, while damage caused by an event is covered. Regularly checked anodes preserve the value.
The Workstyle models are workboats. If such a boat is used commercially it needs commercial cover, not a leisure policy. With these boats NAMMERT first clarifies the use. You can calculate the premium for liability and hull cover in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Can I insure a workboat under a boat policy?
Not under a pure leisure policy. Commercial use requires commercial cover with matching liability. Tell us how the boat is used and we will place it correctly.
What should I watch on an aluminium hull?
Galvanic corrosion is the typical ageing process and counts as wear. Regularly checked sacrificial anodes and a sound shore power installation are the most effective protection and preserve the value.

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 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.
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 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.
