A-9.1 Obligations before the occurrence of the insured event.
A-9.1.1 At night (22:00 to 08:00) and during your permanent absence from the berth (including in winter storage), the jet ski must be secured against unauthorised use, for example by being placed in a locked room, building or property, secured with a safety line to a jet ski pontoon, or housed in a marina in a way protected against external interference. Permanent absence is a period during which use of the jet ski is interrupted for a longer time and separate securing measures are typically required by objective standards.
A-9.2 Exclusions.
A-9.2.1 In addition to A-5, damage to the engine through water hammer is excluded from cover, unless the damage arose as a direct consequence of a collision of the jet ski with a fixed object.
A-9.2.2 In addition to A-5, damage to the hull of the jet ski is excluded so far as the damage does not restrict use for the intended purpose.
