English term or phrase: sea battering bzw. sea’s battering
Hallo,

es werden in einem Text aus dem Versicherungswesen Ereignisse aufgezählt.

(...) earthquakes and seaquakes, extraordinary flooding (including the sea’s battering), volcanic eruptions, (...).

Ich glaube, dass damit der Vorgang gemeint ist, wenn hohe Wellen vom Meer auf das Ufer treffen - gegen Felsen, Stege oder so klatschen. Könnte das sein? Wenn ja, weiß vielleicht jemand einen kurzen prägnanten Ausdruck dafür?

Viele Grüße

Benjamin

In der Transportversicherung gibt es die Deckung gegen "Seewasserschlag" oder "Wasserschlag".

Was soll denn versicherte Gegenstand, also das Wagnis, sein?

agree  Peter Keegan: Seewasserschlag trifft es m.E am besten. Ich denke beispielsweise wenn eine Kaimauer oder Deich durchbrochen wird, also verursacht durch "Seewasserschlag" Die Mauer ist also das Wagnis. Beste Grüße!
