Worth knowing
Dory; cover, cost and conditions
Dory (Dory 16 LTD) is listed with seven motorboats between 3.6 and 5.6 m. Sizes run from the Dory 12 through the Dory 14 and the Dory 16 in the Twin, LTD and STR versions up to the Dory 18 as Sport and Offshore. All models date from build years 1987 to 1998.
Boats of this size usually sit on a trailer and are driven to the water. Third party liability is therefore the base, and transport as well as slipping belong in the cover. Since the build years come from the eighties and nineties, an agreed value is the calmer solution than a market value that often fails to match a well kept boat.
NAMMERT insures Dory (Dory 16 LTD) regardless of build year and place of purchase, including after several changes of owner. A new outboard can be reflected in the stated value. You can work out the premium in the online calculator in five minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Is a Dory 16 from 1990 still insurable?
Yes, for Dory too: Build year alone is no exclusion.
For these boats an agreed value is advisable so the figure for hull and engine is settled in
advance.
Does the trailer itself belong to the boat policy?
For Dory: The trailer is a road vehicle and is treated separately.
The boat, however, stays protected during transport if that use is included.
