Müggelspree (DDR-Bootsbau); cover, cost and conditions

Boats built in the GDR are collectors' items today, with a valuation logic of their own. A well-kept example fetches more than any current-value calculation would suggest, a neglected one almost nothing. An agreed value based on a documented market valuation is therefore the only sensible route.

Spare parts are available only through specialists and collector circles. That is no obstacle to the cover, but it is one for the repair time. If a proper repair is not possible, the claim is settled as a total loss at the agreed value.
