All about your sailboat insurance

Have you recently purchased a sailboat or are you perhaps considering purchasing one? Then of course you want it to be properly insured in case of damage or accident. A sailboat is not a cheap boat, and damage can quickly become expensive. You want to avoid that! You can choose whether you want to insure your sailboat with third-party, third-party+ or all-risk insurance. Choose the coverage that suits your boat best, so you never pay too much premium for your boat insurance.

Is it compulsory to insure a sailing boat?

No, you are not obliged to insure your sailboat. In principle, in the Netherlands it is not obligatory to insure your boat. However, in some cases it is required that you insure a boat at least WA. For example, if you:

  • Want to moor your boat in certain marinas
  • Want to race your boat
  • At a boat depot
  • In some waterways (or parts thereof)
