“Conditions at sea can change dramatically and not only boats can be damaged, but people can also lose their lives As a keen yachtsman myself who has owned boats since 1985, I know how important it is to have proper insurance. I recall a rather unpleasant collision several years ago when my yacht was rammed by a pleasure cruiser and then in turn rammed a moored sailing yacht. Thank God I was insured!” said Nigel Williams, president of the Board of CertAsig. “CertAsig is here to provide the security and support when these regrettable events occur.”, Mr. Williams added
