Coverage Overview
Liability
Liability insurance covers you if you cause damage to other people or their boats with your boat. The mandatory coverage applies both during and outside the sailing season:
- During the sailing season, the insurance covers your liability for damages that occur while using the boat—both on the water and when the boat is on land.
- Outside the sailing season, the insurance only covers damages that happen while the boat is on land.
Comprehensive insurance
Comprehensive insurance covers damage to your boat, equipment, and personal belongings. With this coverage, you receive help for a wide range of incidents, including:
- Fire
- Lightning strike
- Explosion
- Damage to electrical installations
- Theft
- Vandalism
- Storm damage
- Accidents during sailing—for example, if the boat sinks, capsizes, runs aground, strands, or collides with something
- Other sudden and unforeseen events that happen instantly (not damages that develop gradually)
Legal assistance included:
The insurance also includes legal assistance coverage, which covers up to DKK 125,000 including VAT in selected private legal disputes where you are involved as the owner or user of the insured boat.
A deductible of 10% of the total legal costs applies—minimum DKK 2,500.
If you are entitled to legal aid, the deductible is waived.
Personal belongings (included in comprehensive insurance)
Coverage of personal belongings
Personal belongings are automatically covered by the boat’s comprehensive insurance. This applies to items belonging to both the policyholder and other persons on board—typically items taken home outside the sailing season. These can include clothing, sailing gear, wetsuits, sea boots, shoes, fishing equipment, binoculars, tools, and portable electronics.
Coverage limitations
The coverage applies only during the sailing season and assumes that the items are not covered by another insurance.
Personal belongings are insured up to 10% of the boat’s total insured value—but a maximum of DKK 20,000.
The following items are not covered
The insurance does not cover items that are normally not stored on board during sailing, including:
- Spare masts
- Winter tarpaulins, winter stands, and blocks
- Fixed moorings and mooring buoys
- Dinghy trolleys and boat trailers
- Provisions, including beverages, tobacco, and medicine
- Cash and especially valuable items
