On a perfect sailing day in the summer of 2020, delivery skipper Pete Green was sailing off the south-west coast of Spain. Green and his crew were delivering an Amel 52 from Gibraltar to the UK and all was going smoothly when, suddenly, the yacht’s rudder spun uncontrollably from side to side. They had been hit by a whale.

Insuring Adventures
