Pleasure-craft
Sails and protective covers
There is no cover for loss or damage to sails and protective covers that are torn by wind or blown away whilst set, unless caused by:
○ Damage to the spars (poles) to which the sails are rigged.
○ The pleasure-craft being stranded or sunk.
Superficial damage
There is no cover for superficial damage such as scratching, bruising or denting.
Theft or attempted theft
There is no cover for theft or attempted theft of fixtures, fittings, equipment and outboard motors of the pleasure-craft unless there are visible signs of force.
Unsecured outboard motors
We do not cover loss or damage to outboard motors that fall overboard because they are not securely chained or bolted to the pleasure-craft.
