Worth knowing
Weichhold, W. M.; cover, cost and conditions
Boats that shuttle between water and land are covered during launching, during craning and on the transport route, and the boat trailer is included at no extra premium. Three model ranges are recorded under Weichhold, W. M., two Rivercat as a motor yacht and the Wiggie as a motorboat, built from 1966 to 1973.
All three ranges ended in 1973, so production lies far in the past. We insure regardless of the year of construction, the place of purchase and previous owners; full hull cover works with an agreed value and pays compensation with no deduction for depreciation ("new for old"), in the Premium tariff with no age limit for the boat.
In winter storage the cover remains in place, and damage there is expressly part of limited hull cover. What counts for the premium is the type of boat, the value, the year of construction, the engine power and the cruising range. The basis is third-party liability with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros in three tariff levels.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Is a trailer for the boat covered as well?
The boat trailer is included in the boat insurance at no extra premium. Launching, craning and the transport route are covered as well, as is winter storage.
Can a boat from the 1960s still be covered?
Yes. We insure regardless of the year of construction, the place of purchase and previous owners. In the Premium tariff full hull cover applies with no age limit and pays on the basis of the agreed value with no deduction for depreciation ("new for old").

Series by Weichhold, W. M., build years and cover
Rivercat is a motor yacht from Weichhold, W. M., built from 1967 to 1973.
Rivercat is a motor yacht from Weichhold, W. M., built from 1966 to 1973.
Wiggie is a motorboat from Weichhold, W. M., built from 1966 to 1973.
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 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.
On a motorboat the drive is the single most valuable part. Damage after grounding is covered, an engine failure from wear is not.
