Worth knowing
Groningen; cover, cost and conditions
Five motor yacht ranges are listed for Groningen, among them the Waddenkruiser, the Waddenkreuzer Junior and Spezial as well as the Familiendampfer. The years of construction lie between 1964 and 1979. For boats of this age, compensation with no deduction for depreciation (new for old) is the decisive point in the contract.
With us the limit of indemnity in third-party liability ranges from 10 to 50 million euros, graded across Basis, Basis-Plus and Premium. It applies if you damage other people's property while manoeuvring. Which level suits depends on the waters and on the traffic in the harbour.
Full hull cover works with an agreed value and includes collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts including the outboard. In the Premium tariff it applies without an age limit, which counts with years of construction from the sixties. Cover also applies in winter storage and during craning.
