Worth knowing
Zuiderzee; cover, cost and conditions
Zuiderzee is listed with seven models between 7.8 and 12.6 metres, six sailing yachts and one motor yacht. The sailing yachts include the Fisherman, Duchesse and Titan lines, joined by the Zuiderzee Expresse 36 as a motor yacht. The build period runs from 1965 to 1993.
All Zuiderzee yachts are now several decades old. For such boats, hull cover with an agreed fixed value is worthwhile: the agreed value applies after a claim, without deductions for age. Refits, new sails or a replaced engine should be reflected in the stated value.
NAMMERT insures Zuiderzee yachts regardless of year of build and place of purchase. The premium can be calculated in the online calculator in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Does NAMMERT insure a Zuiderzee from the 1960s?
Yes, even the early build years from 1965 can be insured. An agreed fixed value is recommended so the value of a well-kept boat is set in the contract.
Can the Zuiderzee Expresse 36 be insured as a motor yacht?
Yes, the Expresse 36 at 11.2 metres is accepted just like the sailing yachts of the brand. Year of build, value, engine and cruising area are all that is needed for the application.

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 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.
