Worth knowing
Gentle; cover, cost and conditions
No model ranges are recorded for Gentle, and no information is available on country, size or segment either. What can be said regardless of this: third-party liability forms the basis of every boat insurance policy, with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros depending on the tariff level chosen.
Basis, Basis-Plus and Premium differ in level and scope. From Basis-Plus onwards club races are included, and in the Premium tariff the agreed value of full hull cover applies with no age limit. Which level fits depends on the boat and the cruising range, not on the name of the manufacturer.
With no known type of boat, the details given when taking out the policy decide the premium: type of boat, value, year of construction, engine output or sail area and cruising range. Small production runs and home-built boats can be insured, and up to a sum insured of 2.5 million euros the policy can be taken out online.
