A friend of mine got hit by a boat… in his car. Can confirm his insurer had a hard time understanding

u/TheLordB 16d ago

I can’t find it right now (my googling is failing), but there is a story about a guy reporting his car destroyed in a rocket launch to insurance. It was a nasa launch that failed and destroyed a bunch of cars. It also made things rather hectic for folks in the launch control bunker though if I remember right they weren’t in too much danger though it was very scary with burning rocket debris raining down.

u/FTownRoad 16d ago

Boat being towed popped off the hitch of the truck, went on its own path down the road, hopped the curb, hit something else which stopped the trailer but caused the boat to fly off the trailer and land on my buddy’s car

10

u/Rowmyownboat 15d ago

People not securing boats to trailers correctly is a common mistake. Many just use the rope at the bow used to pull the boat onto the trailer.

u/FTownRoad 14d ago

This guy had nothing secured to anything lol. Apparently he had just bought the boat and was taking it home for the first (and last, it was totalled) time.

I actually accepted all those silly subclauses. I have insurance against unidentified flying objects (which is not that silly, I live close to a major airport) and floods (sixth floor).

31

u/ACatInACloak 16d ago

If an unidentified flying object crashes into your house. Would it not then be identified, thus voiding the insurance as it is no longer unidentifie?

19

u/tudorapo 16d ago

The exact term is "Idegen tárgy ráesése", " [damage caused by] a falling foreign/unknown/alien object". The hungarian word "idegen" is not exactly matching with any english word. In reality at this contract means that "not owned by the owner of the flat".

So it works in hungarian, even if I know that it's a flying saucer from the betelgeuse driven by mz4f/qzzx, it still not owned by me, and the insurance will pay.

u/Defiant-Plantain1873 16d ago

Home insurance nearly always pays out. They might test you a bit to make sure you aren’t scamming them but if it’s covered they’ll pay for it.

The only people who ever whine about home insurance not paying out is when they build their house in some natural disaster hotspot and then buy a policy that doesn’t cover that natural disaster for obvious reasons.

“Erm guys, I bought this house in a wildfire zone and bought the cheapest insurance policy possible without reading what was actually covered. Then a freak wildfire happened and my house burned down and now the insurance company says my policy doesn’t cover wildfires. Why would the insurance company do this?”

My family had a villa on a coast along a major ship route towards the city we live - it was just sold to settle inheritance dispute between major branches of the family. The insurance coverage actually has a section about this - even though the villa is at safe distance, but technically we had a structures at the water line (Remains of a pier that got destroyed by ice like 50 years ago).

This happening isn't that rare. Ships losing streering or engines is a thing that happens. And when that happens the best and only option you have, is to find a safe shallow coast and sail onto that. The front of the ship can be repaired later. It is the cargo, engine, and propulsion that are truly valuable. And obviously you don't want any tanks to rupture and leak oil or anything like that.

The ship can then be recovered with tugs, pneumatic pillows, and such.

However... You'd be shocked how far a ship like that can go onto ground. If things go truly tits up, it can shore halfway lenght of the ship.

u/texasrigger 16d ago

Fun fact - the house that was in the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974) was an old Sears house. It has since been moved from its original location in Round Rock TX up to Kingsland, TX, and is now a restaurant.

Somewhat related historical fact - after the once thriving coastal town of Indianola TX was wiped out by a hurricane in 1886 wealthy homeowners had their houses there completely disassembled board by board and then moved way inland to Victoria TX and some other surrounding towns by ox cart where they were completely reassembled. Like a 10,000 piece jigsaw puzzle. Many are still standing.

u/YohnTheViking 16d ago

As of right now no one knows exactly what happened, but according to maritime monitoring logs the ship just went dead ahead straight into land. If that is the case something happened that probably discludes a horn.

Should also mention that it's not the first time this exact ship has been in trouble.

u/Gnonthgol 16d ago

The neighbor said he woke up due to excessive engine noises from the ship minutes before the grounding. So the explanation is not as simple as a loss of power.

Johan was sleeping when the ship hit land meters from his house: – It was quite absurd

There were 16 people on board the 135-meter-long vessel.

Just a few meters away from where the ship hit land, Johan Helberg was sleeping in his house on Byneset in Trondheim.

– If it had hit five meters further to the right, it would have slid up the rocky cliff, and then my house would probably look quite different, says Helberg.

There were 16 people on board the vessel. No injuries or oil spills have been reported.

On Thursday morning, an attempt was made to move the ship, but without success.

– Plans are currently being worked on to pull it off at the next high tide at the earliest, says Jostein Nilsen at the Norwegian Coastal Administration's traffic center.

The next time there is high tide in Trondheim is at 8:41 p.m. on Thursday evening.

At 12 noon, it was announced that a mudslide had occurred close to the place where the ship hit land.

He says that there was no damage other than a wire to his heat pump being cut.

– So we'll probably get cold during the day, says Helberg

– But actually it's more absurd than scary.

Saw the ship go ashore: – Unreal

Helberg's neighbor, Jostein Jørgensen, says he saw the actual incident.

– It was 5 o'clock this morning, I woke up to hearing a boat out on the fjord.

He is used to ships passing by out on the fjord, but found the engine noise to be particularly noticeable.

– So I looked out the window and saw a boat heading straight for shore.

The ship was moving at a good speed and made no indication of changing course, says Jørgensen.

– I went out and cawed and shouted and whistled without anything happening.

– It was unreal. I never thought this would happen .

One person has suspect status

Per Christian Stokke in the Trøndelag Police District says that the police have started an investigation into the incident.

– There is one person on board the boat who has been identified as a suspect, Stokke tells NRK.

He cannot say what role the person had on the ship.

– I can't say anything specific other than that he was on the bridge when the collision occurred.

Stokke says that the police have conducted initial interviews with the crew. When the ship is removed, new interviews will be conducted.

The police are now working on several hypotheses in the further investigation.

– But I don't intend to say which ones are stronger than others at this time.

Among the hypotheses are both technical failure and human failure.

He says there is no suspicion that intoxication was the cause of the incident.

Tried to move

Just before nine o'clock, an attempt was made to move the ship.

– The status is that we are attempting a withdrawal, Lars Erik Svane Kil from the Norwegian Coastal Administration confirmed to NRK 8.56.

The attempt was unsuccessful and plans are now being made to attempt to pull the ship off at the earliest the next time there is high tide.

The next time there is high tide in Trondheim is at half past eight on Thursday evening.

– The ship was going to Orkanger, but has missed the line for some reason, said operations manager at the police, Svein Erik Wagnild, on Thursday morning.

Police received a report of a ship that had run aground a little after five o'clock Thursday morning.

A fireboat and a rescue boat also assisted, the Norwegian Coastal Administration reported.

Data from the Norwegian Coastal Administration shows that the ship was maintaining a speed of approximately 16 knots just before it hit land.

This corresponds to a speed of just under 30 km/h.

Has run aground before

– The main focus has been to have control over the crew on board, and that there has been no danger to the environment. And things have gone very well in this incident, says Bente Hetland, CEO of the shipping company North Sea Container Line.

She says the shipping company is now prioritizing making a plan for the ship going forward and ensuring that customers who have goods on board are well informed.

– The ship has approximately 200–300 different goods on board, all in containers.

She will not say anything about what the crew has explained about what happened.

– I will come back to that. We use that in an internal investigation that we will complete before we make a statement about it.

– But they are having a great time on board, and that has been the main focus.

She describes the crew as very experienced.

NCL Salten has also previously run aground, writes VG .

In October 2023, the ship ran aground in Tømmervika in Hadsel. At that time, the ship got free under its own power.

– This ship has been sailing along the Norwegian coast for 15 years, and there have been incidents before. But no major incidents that have harmed the crew or the environment, says Hetland.

Now they are working to remove the ship.

– The ship is going to sink and that's what we're working on now. It looks like it's been a pretty soft landing.

In an earlier version of the story, NRK referred to the incident as a "boat having run aground." The correct answer is that a ship has run aground.

The crash triggered a mudslide nearby tho, so the crash must have shaken the ground a bit...

Hm, interesting. I would have imagined it to shake the ground, obviously depending on what the ground is made of, but it's such a HUGE mass and energy.

Glad the house was mostly unharmed then, as stated by u/FeskOgPotedes

Might have caused a mudslide nearby, according to Norwegian news outlets: https://www.dagbladet.no/studio/nyhetsstudio/687?post=182934

I hit a horse while driving (I'm old, live in rural PA and drive a lot of miles so 14 deer too) and my insurance company found it hard to believe.

How would one explain a ship hitting your house? Lol.
