Worth knowing
Blohm+Voss; cover, cost and conditions
Blohm+Voss in Hamburg builds superyachts as one-off projects between 60 and 130 metres, at a yard that comes from shipbuilding. Yachts of this class are businesses in their own right: crew, flag state, classification, charter operation. Insurance therefore does not follow the logic of leisure boats, but that of commercial ship operation.
For owners and managers of such yachts, the calculator on this page is not the right route, as it underwrites up to a sum insured of 2.5 million euros. What you need is a conversation about the terms and conditions, crew liability, P&I cover, charter operation and the distribution across several risk carriers. Give us a call; in this segment we work with international partners and we also support the review of existing contracts.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Can you review an existing superyacht contract?
Yes, we do that. Talk to us directly; in this segment it is about the terms and conditions, crew cover and the distribution among risk carriers, not about tariff levels.

Conger (Segeljolle) is a sailing dinghy from Blohm+Voss (Germany), built since 1960, and today changes hands at between €1,000 and €7,000.
As the series is still in production, parts are available and repair costs are predictable. Even so, value it at replacement cost including retrofitted electronics, not at list price.
On motor yachts the drive and the electronics together make up about half the value. Both belong in the valuation, otherwise the sum insured is too low.
As the series is still in production, parts are available and repairs are predictable. Still, set the value at replacement cost, including sails, rigging or gear you bought later.
Dinghies are mostly trailed and stored ashore, and that is where most damage happens: rigging, strapping down and winter storage.
