If you run into a problem like that, assistance is only a cellphone call away, 24 hours a day 7 days a week!

The cost for this service is under normal circumstances covered to 100 % by the insurance which is included in the membership fee. Hence, you no longer need to worry about the costs or how to solve the problem.

The main components of the insurance are:

In addition to this we can also assist with advice and consultation on various subjects such as weather forecasts, opening hours of bridges or locks, where to eat or anchor and much more. Advice and consultation are free of charge.
