I think that the UK's leading yards will be going the same way soon, but there is little press about how they are dealing with the 'Lay Up' as it were.

Main builders in the UK are:-
Sunseeker.
Fairline
Princess
Moody (Sail)
Sealine.
Oyster.

The larger yards such as Vospers, Babcock / DML (Devonport etc) are no longer taking orders or bidding for yacht work, even when they could do with it.

I would hope that can ALL weather the storm and remain active in the markets.
