Worth knowing
Shipmakers; cover, cost and conditions
For this brand the Polar sailing yacht with years of build from 1972 to 1979 is on record, further model ranges are not available. The premium is in any case based on the type of boat, value, year of build, sail area and cruising range, never on the brand or the number of its models.
If a yacht of this vintage is taken over second-hand, it is worth looking at the legal expenses cover for water sports. It is offered in addition and is designed for disputes after buying a used boat or with a yard. The boat insurance itself remains untouched by it.
In the full hull cover the agreed value applies, compensation is paid with no deduction for depreciation ("new for old") and in the Premium tariff with no age limit. The third-party liability with a limit of indemnity of 10 to 50 million euros forms the basis. Switching is simple, because NAMMERT cancels the previous policy free of charge.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
When does the legal expenses cover make sense?
When a dispute with the seller arises after buying a used boat, or when a disagreement with a yard is looming. The legal expenses cover for water sports is offered in addition to the boat insurance.
Do I have to cancel the old policy myself?
No. The switching service takes care of it: NAMMERT cancels the previous policy free of charge, and the new cover starts on the agreed date with no gap.

Series by Shipmakers, build years and cover
Polar is a sailing yacht from Shipmakers, built from 1972 to 1979.
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.
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.
