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, Port d'Auteuil, 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.
The nearest slipway is 1.5 kilometres to the north-east. Whether a fee applies is not recorded in the map data. 77 slipways are recorded within thirty kilometres.
The nearest berths: Port d'Auteuil, 0.6 kilometres to the south-west, Port de Grenelle, 0.6 kilometres to the north-east and Port de Javel-Bas, 0.7 kilometres to the south-west. 66 other berths are recorded within 25 kilometres.
What this berth means for your policy
France does not require liability cover for pleasure craft in general. It is still asked for in three places, and they catch almost everyone: the harbour berth contract, any regatta or event, and commercial use including chartering. 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.
Questions and answers
What owners ask about this berth
Which cruising range do I need for Port de Javel-Haut, Issy-les-Moulineaux?
In the calculator this berth belongs to the cruising range Atlantic coast of Europe. 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?
Not required in general, but a condition of the berth contract, of regattas and of commercial use. 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.
