I have the same concern, but the terms say that the car insurance will only be invalid during the time on the ferry, and it will be valid as long as it is driven according to the regulations after landing.

Be careful on the ferry! I saw with my own eyes last year that a foreigner's car crashed into someone else's car.

Car insurance does not cover the time at sea after boarding the ship. It is still covered after arriving on the island.
