Worth knowing
DNS; cover, cost and conditions
Three motor yachts are on file: Privateer 31, Privateer 34 and Privateer 37 AK, built between 1995 and 2007. New units are no longer being produced; every yacht of these ranges changes hands today as a used boat. It is exactly at this point that the insurance question begins.
After the purchase of a used boat, a dispute about warranted characteristics can arise. For such cases we also offer the legal expenses cover for water sports, which applies to disputes with a yard as well. It supplements third-party liability, limited hull cover and full hull cover, but does not replace them.
Full hull cover secures collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts including the outboard, with an agreed value and with no deduction for depreciation (new for old). For a Privateer from the nineteen nineties the Premium tariff is of interest, because no age limit applies there.

For DNS: It is tailored to disputes after the purchase of a used boat and to disputes with a yard,

deduction for depreciation (new for old).
