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, Nyborg Lystbådehavn, is less than a kilometre away. That close together you share the tight water when manoeuvring, and the most common damage is the damage another boat causes.
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.
Slipshavn slæbested is 3.2 kilometres to the south-east and is free of charge according to the map data. 33 slipways are recorded within thirty kilometres.
The nearest berths: Nyborg Lystbådehavn, 0.3 kilometres to the south-west, Østerhavn, 0.3 kilometres to the north and Kerteminde Jollehavn, 17.8 kilometres to the north-west. 12 other berths are recorded within 25 kilometres.
What this berth means for your policy
Denmark requires third party liability cover for speedboats and jet skis, with 27 million kroner for personal injury and 13.5 million for property damage (Maritime Act section 175, in force since 15 May 2018). Other pleasure craft face no general requirement, but the harbour will usually ask for proof all the same. This berth sits in an area where severe gales are part of the year. That makes one distinction in the small print worth reading: most conditions name storm from force 8, while flooding and storm surge are a separate matter. Whether a boat that breaks free, strikes piles or pontoon, is driven ashore or sinks is covered depends on whether the wording insures accidental events at all or only a fixed list of named perils. By the coastline the berth has no cover to the south-east: in that direction there is no land within sixty kilometres. It is also open to south-south-east. In a gale from the south-east the sea runs in over the full distance, and the berth is then the most dangerous place for the boat.
Questions and answers
What owners ask about this berth
Which cruising range do I need for Nyborg Marina?
In the calculator this berth belongs to the cruising range Skandinavien. 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 for speedboats and jet skis, no for other pleasure craft. The harbour asks for proof all the same. 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.
