Berth, season and winter storage
A berth afloat all year round is possible here, which is exactly what makes the season a question. Policies written for a season commonly pause over the winter months, in harbour and ashore alike. Anyone who leaves the boat in the water through the winter should check which months their own cover actually runs. At the pontoon what counts is what the conditions call a duty of care: lines of adequate strength, chafe protection, a working bilge pump and a boat that is not left unchecked for months. This is a small berth and usually without permanent supervision. Pleasant, and a disadvantage in a claim: with no harbour master there is no witness to when the damage happened or how the boat was made fast. The nearest berth, Μολος, is 5.9 kilometres away.
How exposed the berth lies
Each spoke shows how far the water is open in that direction, up to sixty kilometres. The highlighted spoke is the direction the sea runs in furthest from. Calculated from the coastline, not measured.
The nearest slipway is 0.1 kilometres to the south-east. Whether a fee applies is not recorded in the map data. 7 slipways are recorded within thirty kilometres.
The nearest berths: Μολος, 5.9 kilometres to the north-west, Κόπραινα, 20.3 kilometres to the north and Βαρκό Παλιαμπέλων, 20.5 kilometres to the west. 3 other berths are recorded within 25 kilometres.
What this berth means for your policy
Greece requires third party liability cover. The minimum is 700,000 euros per event and 2,100,000 euros in total. Proof belongs on board; the port authority does ask for it. Severe gales are rarer here than on the open coast, but the squalls of summer thunderstorms are violent and short. They hit the boat at the pontoon, not at sea: lines chafe through, covers tear, a neighbouring boat comes across. By the coastline the berth has some 19 kilometres of open fetch from north-north-west, less from the other directions. That is the distance over which a gale builds its sea before it reaches the pontoon.
Questions and answers
What owners ask about this berth
Which cruising range do I need for Μαρίνα Αμφιλοχίας-Gulf Marina?
In the calculator this berth belongs to the cruising range Greece and the Aegean. The cruising range is the boundary within which a policy applies. Check the wording before you go beyond it: many policies name a narrower area than owners assume, and an extension has to be agreed before the passage, not after the claim.
Can I leave the boat afloat here over winter?
It is possible, but a policy written for a season commonly pauses over the winter months, whether the boat is sailing, lying in harbour or standing ashore. Anyone leaving the boat afloat needs cover that runs the whole year.
Does the harbour ask for proof of insurance?
Yes, and the port authority does check the proof. The paper that belongs on board is the International Certificate of Insurance for pleasure craft: it states the cover in a form that is understood across the bordering states.
