Worth knowing
Stauff / sloep builders; cover, cost and conditions
The sloep is the Dutch canal tender, an open displacement boat with classic lines, electric or small diesel propulsion, built for quiet cruising on canals and inland waters. These boats are durable, hold their value and are sailed for decades; insuring them is less about damage under way than about preserving value and the risks of the berth.
On a sloep with electric propulsion, the battery bank is the technically relevant item. Professional installation and charging as specified are the conditions under which fire and thermal runaway are covered. On boats with a retrofitted battery bank, which is common in the sloep segment, keep the invoice from the installing company; it is the proof that counts in the event of a claim.
Value retention is the argument for an agreed value with these boats. A well-kept sloep loses hardly any value, because the market is narrow and the design classic. Without an agreed value, however, a current value reduced according to age would be paid in the event of a claim. With an agreed value the real market value is stated in the contract, and with a twenty year old boat that is the decisive difference.
