Nimbus 28 DC: cover, cost and conditions
Nimbus 28 DC (twenty-eight): for the premium the model name is not the deciding figure. What counts is the type of boat, its year, its value, its engine output and the waters you sail, the five entries you make in the online calculator.
What does cover for a Nimbus 28 DC (twenty-eight) cost? The premium starts from €49 a year. For a Nimbus 28 DC at the usual market value of €29,000 the premium is €911 a year: liability and hull in Basis-Plus, North Sea, Baltic and Mediterranean, 225 hp (assumed), hull excess €250, paid annually. Hull cover accounts for €762, liability for €149. Tariff as of 03.11.2026, your own boat may differ. Hull cover follows the value: partial cover answers for fire, storm, lightning, theft of the whole boat and damage in winter storage; full cover adds collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts. On a total loss we pay the agreed value, and in the Premium tariff with no deduction for new-for-old.
Bought used, imported or ordered new: we write the Nimbus 28 DC (twenty-eight) with a berth in Germany and abroad alike. The international certificate of insurance reaches you automatically in ten languages, and taking cover out before the handover pays off, because transport and the first launch are then already covered.
Not to be mixed up with its sisters: this is the Nimbus 28 DC, number twenty-eight.
