us who insures you now we will not approach them. |

approximately the dates you will start and finish. For example :October

This is the value usually shown on a marine survey that
indicates the Market value of your vessel at the time of the survey (warts and
all). This is not the value to replace your boat (Replacement Cost) which is
usually much higher. For a better understanding of surveyors and surveys

Navigation
limits for the next twelve months?
Where will you use your boat in the
next 12 months?
Where will you keep your boat
IN COMMISSION? |
When you answer this question
do
not include places you "might" go to in a year or two. The reason we
say this is because many cruisers think long term and ask for quotations to
include all the places they want to visit, e.g. if you are going to Europe and
will visit the Azores, the Canaries, coastal Europe and the Mediterranean
indicate that as your cruising area. Even if you plan to return after one year
to the Caribbean and the USA this would not be included in the next twelve
months itinerary. Underwriters will charge you for the maximum cruising area and
if you do not go there is no refund.
We actually receive requests for
Navigation Area listed as "Everywhere". To an Underwriter this means
from North to South Pole in the next twelve months, is not very helpful to us and is
very expensive.
If you are cruising show "Your Home Port
and your present cruising grounds in transit" for the next 12
months |
|
Changes in cruising plans.
|
We can usually accommodate changes in cruising plans so don't think your
Navigation Limits are cast in stone. |
|
Where
will you keep your boat when NOT in use-laid-up NOT in commission |
This means when you leave
her, go somewhere else or store her a season (Hurricane, winter, etc.) and come back later. If you are cruising and you will
layup somewhere as yet undetermined, mark "In transit-Layup to be
advised". For others that return more or less to the same place after use,
indicate that usual place. |
