Hi Vic, I'm sure you're right but old habits die hard and it makes little difference to what colour and size paper I print to. And by laminating the result it looks very official and authentic.
I have never yet seen a blue copy of insurance and I have always printed my own certs.
I am hoping that a notarised copy of the passport will be acceptable. But who knows... If we get anywhere - we will let you know.

Mac, my experience was in Croatia where the high fees for visiting yachts has funded a modern computer network. When I arrive to enter irrespective of entry port, all my data from previous years is instantly available. That is why it is not advisable to fail to declare out in any year as one can be hit by a bill for the Sojourn tax through the entire absence period if ever entering again.
Your a wise man regarding checking in and out and your quite correct about all previous data kept .Copy of my last AXA Winterthur certificate:

A few years ago I was paying the "launching tax" in a port police office when a "one tenth" owner arrived to complete the relevant paperwork. She was told that the other nine owners needed to be present before the paperwork could be completed! She attempted to explain the situation in words of one syllable or less. The officer was adamant that the other ten owners had to be present.
