Worth knowing
Katana Boats; cover, cost and conditions
Three motor boat ranges are recorded for Katana Boats: the 485 OB/BR and the 555 I/O BR with years of construction from 1997 to 2005 and the 170 CD from 1994 to 2002. No further details are available. Production has ended, and the boats are insured regardless of place of purchase and previous owners.
On boats with outboard power the engine itself is a frequent point of loss. NAMMERT's full hull cover includes theft of parts including the outboard and additionally covers collision, grounding and vandalism. Theft of the entire boat is a matter for limited hull cover.
The premium results from type of boat, value, year of construction, engine power and cruising range, never from the brand. In the Premium tariff full hull cover applies with an agreed value and no age limit, settlement is made with no deduction for depreciation (new for old). The boat trailer is covered by the third-party liability at no extra premium from Basis-Plus, provided it is named in the application with its value. You can add it to the hull cover for a premium.
