Nessie-sary Insurance

A Scottish cruise line felt the need to take out an unusual insurance policy. They are covered in the event that the Loch Ness Monster should damage one of their ships. That is sure to make their passengers feel so much more secure.

Publicity stunt I am sure, and it is working too.

Scoff if you will but I took a photo of Nessie when I was in Scotland a few years ago. I didn't notice she/he/it was in the shot until I got back home! Here's the link to the shot that I've got posted on my web site.
See Nessie here.
