Injuries to Both Passengers and Crew Members in Yacht Accidents
Although luxurious yachts are meant for enjoyment and leisure, every year passengers and crew members sustain serious injuries aboard yachts. Accidents involving yachts are often very serious and may include incidents such as a slip and fall on a ship deck, injuries sustained from a yacht’s collision with another vessel, or even drowning from falling overboard, among other occurrences. Common injuries sustained from accidents occurring aboard yachts include, but are not limited to, concussions, head and back injuries, cuts and bruising, broken and fractured bones, brain injuries, paralysis, and unfortunately sometimes even death.
