Enjoy boating

If you ask a boat owner, the best thing about spring and summer is that you can get out on your boat. Your boat insurance is valid throughout the year, so you can enjoy your boating whenever the weather conditions allow.

A motorsailer is a motor boat particularly suited to cruising, with sailing boat rigging and sails. You can take out boat insurance for a motorsailer that is registered in Finland and has an motor that is bigger than 20 horsepower.

Boat insurance for your motorsailer covers, for example, the

  • hull, rigging and sails
  • dinghy (up to 3.5 m)
  • laying-up blocks and covers
  • motor, navigation equipment and other machines related to boat use.

What does boat insurance cover?

You can avoid many risks by anticipating them and by being careful, but despite all precautions, accidents do happen both aboard and ashore. The boat’s comprehensive motor vehicle insurance covers if, for example, your motorsailer is stolen or damaged when running aground, in a fire or during transportation.

Medium Motor Insurance for a boat excludes boat losses, such as collisions or running aground, from compensation, but does compensate theft and fire losses, however. Our boat insurance policies always include liability and legal expenses insurance.

The commonest loss is running aground, but losses can occur also when the boat is not being used.

Trossi service ensures free assistance for your motorsailer

No matter how careful you are, accidents can happen aboard. If lives are not in danger, saving a motorsailer that is disabled is usually subject to a charge. A cost price is charged for towing a motorsailer that is not in an emergency, and it can run to up to hundreds of euros, depending on the size of the rescue boat and the duration of the operation.

If you subscribe to the Trossi service of the Finnish Lifeboat Institution, your motorsailer will be saved free of charge. If your journey is interrupted, you will be towed to the nearest port and receive assistance in finding a repairer. When you subscribe to the service, you will also support voluntary rescue services at sea and on lakes.
