Fishing vessels may not always be relied upon to keep a good lookout, manoeuvre as expected or display the correct lights and signals where catching fish may be prioritised over compliance with the COLREGS. In this animated training video we look at what went wrong in a collision with a fishing vessel and look at what could have been done to prevent the incident.

For more information please get in touch with our Loss prevention team who will be pleased to assist you.
