Worth knowing
Grand Soleil; cover, cost and conditions
In Italy, at Cantiere del Pardo, Grand Soleil builds sailing yachts between 10 and 20 metres, sporty cruising yachts with racing genes, many of them actually sailed in competition. The yard builds with vacuum infusion and, on the performance models, with carbon reinforcement.
Two points are relevant for Grand Soleil owners: carbon can be insured with us against an additional premium, because repairs are structural work. And racing requires an express agreement, it is not automatically included. The most frequent competition damage is damage to sails and rig; anyone who races regularly should also check whether racing sails and additional equipment are reflected in the sum insured.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Are racing sails insured as well?
For Grand Soleil: If you state their value in the accessories group as technical equipment, yes.

For the Grand Soleil 34 (classic) by Grand Soleil 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.
As the Grand Soleil 44 / 52, Grand Soleil 42 LC LC,
Grand Soleil 34 / 40 by Grand Soleil and 3 more series are still in production,
parts are available and repair costs are predictable.
Even so, value it at replacement cost including retrofitted electronics, not at list price.
For the GS 39 / 45 (classic) by Grand Soleil 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 Grand Soleil 34 (classic), Grand Soleil 44 / 52,
Grand Soleil 42 LC LC by Grand Soleil 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.
