For the Dale Classic 35, Dale Corby 36,
Dale 10m by Dale Nelson and 5 more series 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.
For the Dale Classic 35, Explorer 46, Explorer 38 by Dale Nelson series:
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.
For the Dale Corby 36 by Dale Nelson series:
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.
For the Dale 10m, Dale 11m, Dale 12m by Dale Nelson and further series:
On catamarans the bridgedeck between the hulls is the sensitive part,
and the berth belongs in the application: double width often means a mooring rather than a marina.
