Worth knowing
Cookson Boats; cover, cost and conditions
The cruising range is one of the details that determine the premium, and it makes a difference whether a boat stays inland or goes out to the coast. Cookson Boats of New Zealand stands for racing yachts from 12 to 15 metres that sail offshore races. You define the area when you take out the policy.
The Cookson 12 and 47 were built between 1995 and 2015, the Cookson 50 between 2005 and 2020. Races with scoring status are declared when you take out the policy, club races are included from Basis-Plus upwards. This means that the racing use of these yachts is properly reflected in the policy.
Anyone moving such a yacht across borders needs papers that are understood abroad. NAMMERT issues the international certificate of insurance automatically in ten languages. In full hull cover, the agreed value ensures compensation with no deduction for depreciation (new for old).
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Does a race have to be reported before the start?
Club races are included from Basis-Plus upwards without any further notification. Races with scoring status are declared when you take out the policy, so that cover is unambiguously settled.
What role does the cruising range play in the premium?
It is one of the factors alongside type of boat, value, year of construction and sail area. Whether you sail inland, along the coast or further out is defined when you take out the policy.

Series by Cookson Boats, with value and cover
Cookson 50 is a sailing yacht from Cookson Boats (New Zealand), built from 2005 to 2020, and today changes hands at between €590,000 and €1,200,000.
Cookson 12 / 47 is a sailing yacht from Cookson Boats (New Zealand), built from 1995 to 2015, and today changes hands at between €290,000 and €690,000.
For a series built in these years the market value and the replacement cost often differ widely. An agreed value removes the age-based scale, and the figure in the policy stands.
On sailing yachts the rig and the underwater hull are the expensive parts: a dismasting quickly costs a quarter of the boat, and osmosis counts as wear and is covered by no hull policy.
