Worth knowing
Northstar; cover, cost and conditions
The data on Northstar list motorboats and inflatable boats with an engine, for example the NS ranges 160 to 230 from the years 2003 to 2012 and the Orion 7 from 2019 to 2024. On motorised boats the engine power is one of the factors that go into the premium.
Added to this are the type of boat, the value, the year of construction and the cruising range; the brand has no influence. If an outboard is used, it belongs in the schedule with its type and power. Theft of parts including the outboard is covered by full hull cover, as are collision and grounding.
Details about the country or the segment of the shipyard are not available; ten model ranges are recorded in total. For the contract that is enough: cover also applies during winter storage, when craning, launching and in transit, and a 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.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Do I have to report a change of engine?
Yes, for Northstar too: Engine power is a premium factor, so you should report a change.
That keeps the schedule and the agreed value up to date and the engine is included in the theft of
parts cover.
How are inflatable boats with an engine rated?
For Northstar: Like other motorised boats, by the type of boat, the value,
the year of construction, the engine power and the cruising range.
The outboard belongs in the schedule so that it is included in the agreed value.

NorthStar 220 CD by Northstar and 7 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 Northstar Orion 7, ION 12 Solstice by Northstar series:
On an inflatable the cause decides, not the damage: a tear from impact is covered,
porous fabric after years in the sun is not.
The outboard belongs in the policy with its serial number.
For the NorthStar 220 CD, NS 160 SC, NS 190 SC by Northstar and further series:
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part.
Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
For the NS 265 WA, NS 320 WA by Northstar 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.
