Worth knowing
Telstar; cover, cost and conditions
The Carina ran from 1965 to 2002 and thus over almost four decades, and alongside it the Carina de Luxe, the Dorado and the sailing yacht Orion are recorded. In winter storage, during craning and during launching the cover continues to apply unchanged, without a separate contract being needed for it.
Limited hull cover names damage in winter storage expressly and additionally covers fire, storm, lightning strike and the theft of the entire boat. Precisely in the months without use, this covers the period in which nobody looks after the boat regularly.
Anyone who wants collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts including the outboard to be covered adds full hull cover. It works with an agreed value and with no deduction for depreciation, in the Premium tariff with no age limit, which counts with these years of construction.

Series by Telstar, build years and cover
Carina is a motor yacht from Telstar, built from 1965 to 2002.
Carina de Luxe is a motor yacht from Telstar, built from 1965 to 1973.
Dorado is a motor yacht from Telstar, built from 1965 to 1973.
Orion is a sailing yacht from Telstar, built from 1965 to 1972.
For the Carina by Telstar 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 Carina de Luxe, Dorado and Orion by Telstar 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 Carina, Carina de Luxe, Dorado by Telstar 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.
For the Orion by Telstar 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.
