Rheinkreuzer 8 bis 12 m

Weyres / Rhine cruisers; cover, cost and conditions

Weyres in Cologne and other Rhineland yards built the Rheinkreuzer from the fifties into the eighties, steel and wooden displacement boats between 8 and 12 metres, built for the Rhine, the Moselle and the West German canals. They are witnesses of West German water sports and today classics with dedicated owners.

On a Rheinkreuzer the type of construction determines how it is insured. A steel hull needs wall thickness measurement and corrosion protection, a wooden hull a valuation survey and the wood surcharge from a sum insured of 20,000 euros upwards. In both cases the agreed value is the instrument: the depreciated market value of a sixty year old boat is close to zero, the replacement value of a well kept example clearly above it.
