Bootswerft Hammermeister; cover, cost and conditions

Yard-built displacement boats are used, converted and passed on over decades. For the insurance that means above all: the value in the policy must match the condition today, not the year of purchase. After every refit the agreed value should be adjusted, and with us that is done informally and without a new policy.

The second point is the berth. Boats that stay permanently in the water carry a different risk from trailer boats: sinking at the jetty through a leaking shaft gland or a burst cooling water hose is the case that really does occur. A second bilge switch with an alarm costs little and reports before things get expensive.

Questions and answers

Frequent questions

Is sinking at the berth covered?

Yes, for Hammermeister too: under full hull cover,

as far as it is not due to neglected maintenance.

Check hoses and skin fittings every year.

Can I increase the sum insured later on?

in particular after a refit or an engine change.
