Worth knowing
Nautiraid; cover, cost and conditions
In France, Nautiraid builds folding boats in the upper segment; Narak and Grand Raid are sea kayaks with a wooden frame and a high-quality skin, built for expedition trips and long tours. Their values lie above the folding boat average, and that makes hull insurance on a Nautiraid a sensible product, not merely an option.
On a folding boat, theft is the main risk, because the boat is transported and stored in a packsack. Our full hull cover covers theft from locked rooms and vehicles; on an expedition boat that goes travelling, that is the protection which matters in practice. State the boat number and photograph the frame and the skin; on a folding boat, proving that the boat existed is harder than on a rigid boat.
For expedition trips the cruising range is the second point. Anyone travelling with a folding boat in Scandinavia, Greenland or on the Atlantic coast needs the appropriate cruising range level; the EU inland level is not enough. Report the tour in advance; a passage already made cannot be included afterwards. The equipment can be insured as accessories if it is stated in the application.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
How do I prove a folding boat in the event of a claim?
With the boat number and photographs of the frame and the skin. On a folding boat, proof that the boat existed is harder than on a rigid boat, so prepare it in advance.
Do I need an extension for Scandinavia?
Yes, the EU inland level is not enough. Report the tour in advance; a passage already made cannot be included afterwards.

Nautical information What counts before you cast off, papers, equipment, waters
Licence
No licence required; muscle-powered craft are licence-free, federal waterways included.
Registration
No registration required. Some waters do ask for a local permit or sticker before you launch.
Waters
Inland lakes, rivers and the coast, mind nature-reserve rules; many stretches are closed seasonally.
Equipment
Buoyancy aid or lifejacket, buoyancy bags in the boat, spraydeck, a waterproof case for phone and papers, a whistle.
Cruising range
The agreed cruising range is stated in the policy and can be extended for a single trip at any time.
Weather
Offshore wind is the main risk: it carries you away from the bank and makes the return hard. Check wind direction and the gust forecast before you launch.
General guidance, not a complete account; what governs are the rules of the waters you are on and your boat’s manual. Current wind force and direction for your waters are shown on the Home.
Series by Nautiraid, with value and cover
Nautiraid Raid / Grand Raid (classic) is a kayak from Nautiraid (France), built from 1972 to 1998, and today changes hands at between €1,000 and €5,000.
Nautiraid Grand Raid / Coracle is a kayak from Nautiraid (France), built since 2000, and today changes hands at between €2,000 and €6,000.
Narak / Grand Raid folding kayak is a kayak from Nautiraid (France), built since 1985, and today changes hands at between €2,000 and €9,000.
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 a kayak accident cover comes first; liability is usually handled by your private policy. Hull cover deals with theft and transit damage.
As the series is 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.
