If the anchor was dragged ONLY due to strong winds this can be considered to be an Act of God which from what I know is not an insurable risk.

If again it was dragged due to crew negligence (i.e. the crew didn't make sure that it was secure and therefore it dragged) and if crew negligence is insured by the owners and is also proved that this was the case they may have a claim.

An unfortunate incident

Are you seeking to highlight your 'Ice Kiddie' troll postings (which sought to discredit fellow RIBsters, RIBnettters and recent RIB cruises including the Round Ireland trip) to coincide with Fiona's visit to Britiain?
