Worth knowing

Friedrich Barthel GmbH; cover, cost and conditions

Friedrich Barthel was a German yard building cruising sailing yachts and motorboats. The boats carry the letters eFBe, which spell out the initials of the house. The naming of the sailing yachts is striking: they carry the names of islands in the North Sea and the Baltic, Amrum, Borkum, Anholt and Bornholm, which says at the same time what they were built for. You recognise them by the heavy high built hull, the small low deckhouse and the gear drawn to last; these are boats for the Wadden Sea, the North Sea and the Baltic rather than for a sheltered lake.

Our model records list 42 Friedrich Barthel models: 30 sailing yachts, eleven motor yachts and one motorboat. Recorded build years run from 1979 to 2005. Forty two series are recorded: the sailing yachts eFBe 30 S, 31 Ms, 35 Ms, 35 Ms Ks, 36 Ms, 39 S and 46 S in versions I and IV; the island named Amrum eFBe 35 and 35 II, the Bornholm eFBe 46, the Anholt 33, the Borkum 46 and the Bornholm 46. The motor line carries the M models 700, 800, 1035, 1450 and 1500. Lengths run from 6.8 to 15.3 metres, half the models between 10.3 and 14 metres.

Boats named after tidal islands were drawn for tidal water, and that shapes them: a hull that can take the ground twice a day needs a flat enough bottom to sit upright and enough structure to carry its own weight on sand. Everything else follows from that, including a rig that has to be handled by a small crew in the kind of weather the North Sea produces.

What this means for the cover

For the eFBe 30 S, eFBe 31Ms, eFBe 35 Ms by Friedrich Barthel GmbH and 20 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 Amrum eFBe 35 II, EMS eFBe 1450 II,

Sylt eFBe 36 II by Friedrich Barthel GmbH and 15 more series 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.

For the eFBe 30 S, eFBe 31Ms, eFBe 35 Ms by Friedrich Barthel GmbH and further 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 eFBe 700 M by Friedrich Barthel GmbH series:

On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part.

Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.

For the eFBe 800 M, eFBe 1035 M, eFBe 1500 M by Friedrich Barthel GmbH and further 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.
