Worth knowing
Motiva Yacht; cover, cost and conditions
Motiva is a brand of cruising sailing yachts with one feature that runs through the whole range: the deck saloon. Instead of a flat deck with a cabin beneath it, this type has a raised saloon with windows all round and usually a second steering position inside. Anyone sailing one sits dry and still sees out, which is meant for cold wet water rather than for a Mediterranean summer. You recognise the yachts by the tall superstructure carried well forward with its large glazed areas and by the heavy robust finish.
Our model records list 43 Motiva models, 39 of them sailing yachts and four motor yachts. Recorded build years run from 1975 to 2012. Forty three series are recorded: the Motiva models 37, 38, 39, 41, 43, 45, 49, 57 and 60 as D and 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 41 and 44 as S, plus the 20 m and the motor yachts MY 1170 and MY 1300. Lengths run from 10.7 to 20 metres, half the models between 12 and 15.9 metres. The number gives the approximate length in feet and the letter the version.
A deck saloon buys visibility and shelter at a price, and the price is glass. Large windows in a raised superstructure are a structural element as much as a view, and they are what takes the load when a sea comes aboard. On a boat drawn for cold water that is a trade worth understanding before buying rather than afterwards.

For the Motiva 38 D, Motiva 38 S,
Motiva 39 D by Motiva Yacht and 31 more series 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.
For the Motiva 42 A, Motiva 39-2 MS,
Motiva 46 S by Motiva Yacht and 6 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 Motiva 38 D, Motiva 38 S, Motiva 39 D by Motiva Yacht and further 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.
For the Motiva MY 1170, Motiva MY 1300, Motiva MK 1300 by Motiva Yacht and further 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.
