Worth knowing
Knoop; cover, cost and conditions
Two motorboats are recorded under Knoop: the Arabella 685 with build years from 1968 to 1981 and the Sportfischer 330 from 1974 to 1981. For boats built four decades ago there are no list prices any more. The agreed value in full hull cover replaces them and sets the compensation in advance.
The agreed value is arranged when the policy is taken out and is paid out in the event of a claim with no deduction for depreciation ("new for old"). In the Premium tariff full hull cover applies with no age limit, so a boat from the 1960s or 1970s remains eligible for hull insurance. We insure regardless of the year of construction, the place of purchase and previous owners.
For the premium what counts is the type of boat, the value, the year of construction, the engine power and the cruising range. Full hull cover includes collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts including the outboard, limited hull cover includes fire, storm, lightning strike, theft of the whole boat and damage in winter storage.
