Resolved: clarification received from charter company The boat is insured against loss, but I would have to pay the excess in the event that there was a claim, even if it was not my fault - striking an uncharted submerged object being the quoted example. The charterer does not offer an excess...

With who? None I can find cover damage to own boat

What a minefield. The included policy offered by the company from which I am bareboat chartering later this year will not cover me for any damage caused or contributed to by my negligence, and I would also be held liable, it seems, if the boat ws to be damaged through no fault of my own by...

if its any consolation ( 4 years later) note this from the Panataneus FAQ " Does this insurance cover me for damage I cause to the yacht I am skippering? No."

The rules of Internet forums:- 1 ask six people, expect seven answers 2 ask what brand of butter is best, expect to be told you should be buying margarine 3 specifically state you don’t want to discuss something but someone will still bring it up 4 sooner or later someone will accuse someone...

Except I’m the vendor ?. but yes the whole point of my enquiry is that it’s easy to take the view ” ABC is defective, it will cost £XYZ to fix, so I want £XYZ off the purchase price”, without asking the questions “What happens if I don’t fix ABC, if I do fix it, will it just recur elsewhere...

Ok lets go over this again: 1) I am quite happy with the design and operation of my shaft seal 2) The same design has been fitted to at least 2000 boats and probably 10,000 by one manufacturer and as it is not their own design, I suspect to thousand more boats from different manufacturers. 3)...

apart from last winter, it always has been

Nope. See above reply. 1800 of these boats were built all with the same design and I’d be surprised if the manufacturer used a different system in the slightly bigger and smaller models so at a guess 10000+ using these seals. As I say, maybe it’s a US thing
