Elan 40: cover, cost and conditions
The premium for the Elan 40 is not set by its model name. In the online calculator you give the type of boat, year, value, engine output and cruising area, and those five values make the price.
A year of cover for the Elan 40 starts from €39 a year for a sailing boat, from €49 for a motorboat. For a Elan 40 at the usual market value of €73,000 the premium is €1,215 a year: liability and hull in Basis-Plus, North Sea, Baltic and Mediterranean, about 95 m² of sail, hull excess €500, paid annually. Hull cover accounts for €1,096, liability for €119. Tariff as of 02.11.2026, your own boat may differ. The rest is set by hull cover and the value of the boat: partial cover for fire, storm, lightning, theft of the whole boat and winter storage, full cover also for collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts. If the boat is lost completely, we pay the agreed value, in Premium with no new-for-old deductions.
We also write the Elan 40 when it was bought used, imported or ordered straight from the yard, with a berth at home or abroad. The international certificate of insurance, which you receive automatically, covers ten languages. A policy that starts before the handover covers transport and the first launch.
Not to be mixed up with its sisters: this is the Elan 40, number forty.
