Worth knowing
Swanwick; cover, cost and conditions
For Swanwick two sailing yacht ranges are available, the Meridian 31 with years of build from 1975 to 1984 and the Meridian 9,5 MS from 1972 to 1980. Production lies far in the past. For yachts from that time the first question is how the value is recorded in the contract and what applies in a claim.
The answer is the agreed value. It is arranged when the policy is taken out and in a claim is paid out with no deduction for depreciation (new for old). In the Premium tariff the full hull cover applies with no age limit, so that even a yacht from the nineteen seventies is not restricted to the limited hull cover, but can be fully covered.
We insure regardless of the year of build, the place of purchase and previous owners. Club races are included from Basis-Plus, and the third-party liability cover with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros remains the basis in every level. A trailer runs along at no extra premium, in winter storage the cover continues.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
How is the value of a Meridian 31 determined?
Through the agreed value, which is arranged when the policy is taken out. It reflects the year of build, condition and equipment and is paid in a total loss with no deduction for depreciation (new for old).
Does a high age rule out the full hull cover?
No. In the Premium tariff the full hull cover applies with no age limit. We insure regardless of the year of build, the place of purchase and previous owners, decisive are the condition and the arranged agreed value.

Series by Swanwick, build years and cover
Meridian 31 is a sailing yacht from Swanwick, built from 1975 to 1984.
Meridian 9,5 MS is a sailing yacht from Swanwick, built from 1972 to 1980.
For a series of this age 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.
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.
