Worth knowing
Petersen; cover, cost and conditions
Four model ranges are on record, three sailing yachts and one cabin catamaran, with construction periods between 1972 and 1988. For sailing boats and catamarans the premium is based on the sail area instead of the engine output, along with value, year of construction, type of boat and cruising range.
A cabin catamaran is classified differently from a monohull, because the type of boat and the cruising range are recorded separately. In both cases third-party liability with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros remains the basis of the policy, graded by tariff level.
Production ended in the eighties, so these are used boats. We provide cover regardless of the year of construction, the place of purchase and previous owners. Under full hull cover an agreed value applies with no deduction for depreciation (new for old), in the Premium tariff with no age limit.

For the Petersen-Racer, Petersen 22,5,
Petersen 63 by Petersen and 1 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 Petersen-Racer by Petersen series:
On catamarans the bridgedeck between the hulls is the sensitive part,
and the berth belongs in the application: double width often means a mooring rather than a marina.
For the Petersen 22,5, Petersen 63, Gouwzee IV by Petersen 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.
