Worth knowing
Island Packet Yachts; cover, cost and conditions
Island Packet Yachts is listed in our records with 39 models, predominantly sailing yachts, complemented by a few motor yachts, motorboats and motorsailers such as the North Star 44. The core are the numbered ranges from the Island Packet 349 to the 525, plus models such as the Estero, Blue Jacket 40, SP Cruiser Mark II and the 42 Motor Sailer. Production runs since 1978, lengths from 7.3 to 15.9 m.
The long production history matters for insurance: older Island Packets from the 1980s and 1990s do best with an agreed fixed value instead of pure current value cover, while for recent boats the up-to-date value counts. Owners planning long passages with their Island Packet should choose the cruising area in the application accordingly.
NAMMERT insures Island Packet yachts regardless of build year and place of purchase. The premium for Island Packet insurance can be calculated in the online calculator in 5 minutes.

As the series is 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.
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 a series built in these years 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.
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part. Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
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.
For a series of this age 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.
