Worth knowing
Relcraft; cover, cost and conditions
Between 1974 and 1982 the three Relcraft model ranges Rubin, Saphir and Zivcon were built. Since then the boats have changed owner on the used market. For such vintages the agreed value is the fitting framework: the value that was set applies, and compensation is paid with no deduction for depreciation.
The full hull cover in the Premium tariff knows no age limit, and we insure regardless of year of construction, place of purchase and previous owners. A boat from the seventies thus receives the same full hull cover as a young one. Damage in winter storage is covered by the limited hull cover as well.
A Relcraft 23 is already sailing in our own portfolio. Anyone taking over a Rubin or Saphir second hand can take out the legal expenses insurance for water sports at the same time: it helps in disputes after the purchase of a used boat. In this way not only the boat but also the purchase itself is covered.

Series by Relcraft, build years and cover
Relcraft Rubin is a motorboat from Relcraft, built from 1974 to 1982.
Relcraft Saphir is a motorboat from Relcraft, built from 1974 to 1982.
Relcraft Zivcon is a motor yacht from Relcraft, built from 1974 to 1981.
For the Relcraft Rubin, Relcraft Saphir and Relcraft Zivcon by Relcraft 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 Relcraft Rubin, Relcraft Saphir by Relcraft 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 Relcraft Zivcon by Relcraft 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.
