Worth knowing
Viper; cover, cost and conditions
Fifty model ranges are on record for Viper, many of them under the name Osprey. These include motor boats such as the Osprey 24 Fisherman and the Osprey 30 Long Cabin, inflatable boats without an engine such as the Eagle, and inflatable boats with an engine such as the Falcon 8.2 or the Lynx 26.
From our own portfolio, the 203 and the 243 are insured with us. The premium and the cover are decided by the type of boat, the year of construction, the value, the engine power and the cruising range, not by the name of the make. An inflatable boat without an engine is therefore rated differently from a motor boat of the Long Cabin range.
Full hull cover includes collision, grounding, vandalism and theft of parts including the outboard, and indemnity is paid according to the agreed value with no deduction for depreciation (new for old). The boat trailer is covered by the third-party liability at no extra premium from Basis-Plus, provided it is named in the application with its value, and the cover applies during launching, during craning and in winter storage. You can add it to the hull cover for a premium.

As the Osprey 24 Fisherman, Osprey 26 Fisherman,
Osprey 26 Long Cabin by Viper and 14 more series are still in production,
parts are available and repair costs are predictable.
Even so, value it at replacement cost including retrofitted electronics, not at list price.
As the Osprey Inflatables Eagle, Osprey Inflatables Osprey 5.15,
Osprey Inflatables Seaharrier by Viper and 4 more series are still in production,
parts are available and repairs are predictable.
Still, set the value at replacement cost, including sails, rigging or gear you bought later.
For the Osprey Inflatables Vipermax 8.0, Osprey 37 Cabrio,
Viper Max 6.5 by Viper and 14 more 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 Eagle 5,6, Kestrel 4.6,
Osprey XR 18 by Viper and 6 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 Osprey 24 Fisherman, Osprey 26 Fisherman,
Osprey 26 Long Cabin by Viper and further 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 Osprey Inflatables Eagle, Osprey Inflatables Osprey 5.15,
Osprey Inflatables Seaharrier by Viper and further series: Even without an engine the rule holds:
a tear from impact or vandalism is covered, UV ageing is wear.
For the Osprey Inflatables Falcon 8.2, Osprey Inflatables Lynx 26,
Osprey Inflatables Lynx 28 by Viper and further series: On an inflatable the cause decides,
not the damage: a tear from impact is covered, porous fabric after years in the sun is not.
The outboard belongs in the policy with its serial number.
For the Osprey 37 Cabrio, Osprey 30, Osprey 26 Fisherman by Viper and further 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.
