Frequently asked questions about your fishing boat

All the answers to the most frequently asked questions about your fishing boat, listed together.

Is fishing boat insurance mandatory?

Een pleasure craft insurance is in Nederland niet wettelijk verplicht, maar de WA-dekking (aansprakelijkheid) is sterk aan te raden en wordt door veel jachthavens geëist. Vanwege de waarde is casco vaak verstandig.

Welke dekking kies ik voor mijn Fishing boat?

You can choose from Third-Party Liability, Third-Party + Limited Cover, and All-Risk. The choice depends on the value, the sailing area, and the usage. We compare the options for you.

Where am I insured with my fishing boat?

You are insured on Dutch inland waterways by default. For wider inland waters, coastal waters, or abroad, you can expand your sailing area. We tailor this to your sailing plans.

Is my motorcycle insured?

Yes, you include the (outboard) motor, mast, rigging, and sails in the insurance against damage and theft. We ensure that everything is listed in the policy.

Is theft of my fishing boat covered?

With limited or full hull insurance, you are insured against theft. An approved lock, security measures, and a secure berth or storage facility are often requirements and reduce the premium.

Will I receive help and salvage on the water?

With the search and recovery module, you receive assistance on the water following a breakdown or damage, including recovery costs. We include this in our advice.

Can I insure my fishing boat at its appraised value?

For a yacht, classic boat, or wooden boat, insuring at appraised value is sensible so that the value is fixed in the event of damage. We arrange a valuation plan.

Can I get insurance without no-claims years?

Yes, that is always possible. We will find the insurer with the most favorable terms for your fishing boat.
