Berth, season and winter storage
The boat comes ashore for the winter. Frost is the most expensive damage of the year here: a cooling circuit left full cracks the engine block. Insurers treat that as a breach of a duty of care rather than as an accident, whoever the insurer is. Read what your own conditions require of you before the boat is lifted out. 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. With that number of berths this is a large harbour, and it shifts the risk: most damage here does not happen at sea but while berthing in a tight basin, or comes from the neighbouring boat that breaks loose. The nearest berth, Watersportcentrum Muiderberg, is 2.9 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 0.3 kilometres to the west. Whether a fee applies is not recorded in the map data. 137 slipways are recorded within thirty kilometres.
The nearest berths: Watersportcentrum Muiderberg, 2.9 kilometres to the north-west, Marina Muiderzand, 3.4 kilometres to the north and WSV Almere-Haven, 5.3 kilometres to the north-east. 100 other berths are recorded within 25 kilometres.
What this berth means for your policy
The Netherlands have no general insurance requirement, but marinas require liability cover through the berth contract. Anyone going beyond the IJsselmeer onto the North Sea needs a cruising range that includes the coast. 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 12 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 Jachthaven Naarden?
In the calculator this berth belongs to the cruising range Niederlande. 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.
Is my boat insured in winter storage?
Hull cover normally applies ashore as well, including storm damage on the cradle and theft from the yard, but two things decide the case. A policy written for a season usually pauses over the winter months and then carries nothing at all, and frost damage to a cooling circuit that was not drained counts as a breach of a duty of care rather than as an accident.
Does the harbour ask for proof of insurance?
There is no legal requirement, but the berth contract almost always demands liability cover in so many words. 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.
