Worth knowing

K & S Polyboats; cover, cost and conditions

Fourteen ranges are recorded for K & S Polyboats, motor boats and sailing boats side by side: the Kilkruiser from 1965 to 1990, the Oceaan models from 1971 to 1988 as well as the motor yachts Argo 850 and Kilkruiser 860. Four boats of the brand are insured with us, among them a 530 and a 650.

Boats of these years mostly spend the winter ashore. The limited hull cover expressly names damage in winter storage, as well as fire, storm, lightning strike and theft of the whole boat. The cover also remains in place during craning, during launching and in transit.

In the full hull cover we agree an agreed value and pay compensation with no deduction for depreciation. Year of construction, place of purchase and previous owners are no obstacle to acceptance. For an Oceaan the sail area counts instead of the engine output, alongside type of boat, value, year of construction and cruising range.

Questions and answers

Frequent questions

Is a Kilkruiser covered in winter storage?

Yes, for K & S Polyboats too: Damage in winter storage forms part of the limited hull cover,

as do fire, storm, lightning strike and theft of the whole boat.

Craning, launching and transit are included as well.

Can I use the same policy for a sailing boat of the Oceaan range?

Yes, for K & S Polyboats too: only the basis of the premium changes:

with sailing boats the sail area counts instead of the engine output, together with type of boat,

value, year of construction and cruising range.

Club races are included from Basis-Plus upwards.

What this means for the cover

For the Kilkruiser 650, Oceaan 18,

Kilkruiser 710 by K & S Polyboats and 10 more 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.

For the Kilkruiser 650, Kilkruiser 710, Kilkruiser 720 by K & S Polyboats and further series:

On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part.

Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.

For the Oceaan 18, Oceaan 22 by K & S Polyboats series:

On boats this size the condition of rig and fittings decides.

A dismasting is covered, worn terminals after years are not.

For the Kilkruiser 860, Argo 850, Polyflash by K & S Polyboats series:

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 the Oceaan 25 by K & S Polyboats 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.
