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. |
That's interesting. You read so much about US builders and how bad the economy is hurting them (at least what is published here). I read the post about the megayacht builders and the declining orders. But what about the Sunseekers, Ferrettis, Azimuts and the like? I'm sure they are having issues as well, but I would love to get a more world view on the boat building industry (large and not so large builders).
