Worth knowing
Spreu Boote; cover, cost and conditions
Spreu Boote stands for inflatable boats from 2.9 to 5.5 m in length. Defining is the Hippo range from the Hippo 3SB to the Hippo 16 SB including the Extreme versions, plus the Guppy. The boats have been built since 1995.
Inflatables are light, mobile and often powered by an outboard. Liability cover is the base of the protection, transport is included in the hull insurance, and the engine belongs in the declared value. For the early build years an agreed fixed value is worthwhile.
NAMMERT insures Spreu inflatable boats regardless of build year and place of purchase. The online calculator shows your premium in about 5 minutes.
Questions and answers
Frequent questions
Does a Spreu inflatable need its own insurance?
Liability is the base and pays for damage you cause with the boat. Hull cover is worthwhile depending on the value of boat and engine, and transport is included in it.
Does NAMMERT insure a Hippo 12 SB?
Yes. The roughly 4.9 m Hippo 12 SB can be covered with liability and hull insurance. Enter the value of boat and engine in the online calculator.

Nautical information What counts before you cast off, papers, equipment, waters
Licence
Required inland and at sea from 15 hp (11.03 kW); below that, none.
Registration
Registration from 3 hp; carry the boat certificate on maritime shipping routes.
Waters
Inland lakes, the coast and the Wadden Sea, mind the tide tables and the fairway.
Equipment
Lifejackets, paddles, pump, repair kit, anchor gear and signalling equipment.
Cruising range
RIBs close to the coast; check air pressure before every trip and after temperature swings.
Weather
From Beaufort 4 the ride turns hard, and offshore wind sharply raises the risk of drifting.
General guidance, not a complete account; what governs are the rules of the waters you are on and your boat’s manual. Current wind force and direction for your waters are shown on the Home.

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.
Even without an engine the rule holds: a tear from impact or vandalism is covered, UV ageing is wear.
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.
