S2#13. No Insurance Payout – 16 days to pay the money for new Leopard 45!!!

@Barefoot Doctors Sailing – With only 16 days till we have to pay for our replacement Leopard 45, our insurance has still not paid us out, despite the claim being “approved” by the assessor 5 months ago. This creates a major problem as the funds have to obtained to honour the contract.

The insurance company is claiming complexities of the multiple companies involved and even though we know this should not make any difference to them paying us out, they are not budging… We do have lawyers to represent us and we have been reassured that payout “will be made” but no dates and no amounts….

We also discuss the fire sage and where we are at with that and give you good information for Leopard owners that the fire was not caused by a fault of the boat.

At the same time we are tidying up our 10m steel canal boat for sale and continuing to buy all the gear we need for the L45….

We discuss also getting Long Stay French Visas to allow a 12 month stay in the EU, hard drives for data storage on boats and guidance on tool selection and kitchen gear on boats.

FIRE SAGA
The Barefoot Doctors are still waiting for the conclusion to the fire saga, insurance still not paid out, and confirmation of cause of fire still in the hands of the legal and insurance companies – we wait in anticipation…. We did discuss this when videoing the episode but it is all too depressing as nothing has happened – so we wait for good news to share with you all and hope that it will happen soon!

Binge watch and come barefoot with us as we travel and explore the planet, mostly from the water but sometimes through the minds of others as we provide aid and support where needed through the amazing TUFMINDS solutions!
