Yacht Hull Insurance

Yacht Hull Insurance from Pantaenius covers you for total loss and partial damage to your yacht.

Your benefits

Protection against all risks

Agreed fixed value

We will agree a fixed insurance sum with you, which will be reimbursed in the event of total loss without any deduction for actual cash value, so that you are able to afford an equivalent vessel.

New for old

If your vessel is damaged and needs new parts for repairs, partial damage without deduction for actual cash value will be covered, up to the agreed insurance sum.

No deductible for you

No deductible will be charged in the event of total loss, burglary, transport damage, fire, damage to personal effects and many other events.

FAQ

I have sold my boat. What happens with my policies?

openclose

If you have sold your boat, please inform us immediately by sending us a purchase agreement or transfer certificate by post or by email. Your policies will then be cancelled and settled upon transfer of ownership. 

Can the purchaser take over the policies?

openclose

The policies cannot be transferred directly. In the case of existing yacht hull insurance/yacht liability insurance, temporary insurance cover is provided for the purchaser for one month from the date of transfer of ownership. For hull insurance, the purchase price specified in the purchase agreement applies, however up to a maximum of the previous sum insured (agreed fixed value). The purchaser will also receive an insurance recommendation, so they can take out new policies. 

How is my trailer co-insured?

openclose

Trailers and bearing blocks that permanently belong to the boat are automatically co-insured under the hull insurance. 

My trailer is now automatically included in the insurance cover, do I need to specify an extra sum?

openclose

Yes. To ensure that you have sufficient insurance cover in the event of the total loss of the boat and trailer, a separate additionally insured sum should be specified for the trailer.
