Worth knowing
James Wharram; cover, cost and conditions
James Wharram is listed in our records with 35 models, all sailing catamarans. The core are the Tiki family from the Tiki 21 to the Tiki 38, the Pahi 63, the Hitia 17 and designs such as the Tanenui, Narai IV, Ariki, Captain Cook and Gaia. Build years run from 1971 to 2013, lengths from 4.3 to 19.2 m.
Many Wharram catamarans are older builds: here an agreed fixed value works better than pure current value cover. The small models such as the Hitia 17 or Tiki 21 are trailerable, so transport should be included; for the large boats hull value and cruising area belong precisely in the application.
NAMMERT insures Wharram catamarans regardless of build year and place of purchase. The premium for Wharram insurance can be calculated in the online calculator in 5 minutes.

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 catamarans the bridgedeck between the hulls is the sensitive part, and the berth belongs in the application: double width often means a mooring rather than a marina.
Open catamarans are beached and trailed, so most damage happens ashore and in transit, not on the water.
For a series of this age there is no list price left. That is why we work with an agreed value: you state the figure, we agree it, and in a total loss exactly that amount is paid, with no deduction for wear.
