un grain de sable vient de se glisser dans la machine australienne à construire des bateaux :
"October 16, noon: In an exclusive interview with Trade-a-Boat, sailing legend, boatbuilder and big business wig, Iain Murray, has confirmed today that his Azzura Marine Nowra company is insolvent.
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu has been appointed liquidators (David John Frank Lombe and Simon John Cathro). Sydney Yachts are therefore no more and the future for Marten Yachts isn’t yet known.
“All 60 staff were fired, told to take their tools and go,” a staffer told Trade-a-Boat. Murray responded to our calls and said that he was not in a situation to operate the business outside corporate governance. “It’s been done this way so all staff will pick up their entitlements,” Murray says.
Murray said he has been conducting an extensive review of his marine operations. “I have poured extensive amounts of money into the Nowra-based business over the years, but I’m no longer in a position to do that. There was backlog of work, but it’s all dried up.”
Azzura Marine Nowra built Sydney Yachts, which are now no longer in production, and the luxury Marten yachts that each cost millions.
“Marten Yachts is not in liquidation. But we have to figure out a whole lot of stuff. I’m not going to build them in Nowra, but whether someone else takes over the operation or we build them elsewhere is not yet known,” Murray said.
Murray sighted the Global Financial Crisis and lack of demand for luxury yachts as the reason for closing the doors of Azzura Marine Nowra.Pour traduire FAILLITE, LIQUIDATION
C' est un évènement qui affecte donc directement la suite de notre aventure ... et pour être honnête, nous ne savons pas encore ce que nous allons faire. Une seule chose est sûre : notre visa de travail expire d ici 3 mois (fin janvier) et, sans sponsor, il nous sera impossible de rester plus longtemps.
recherche de travail ? nouveau sponsor ? redémarrage du chantier avec un nouvel investisseur (ou ancien client)? vacances ? New Zeeland ? Thailand ? Indonesie ? France ?
Pas d' inquiétude: ce n' est qu' à moitié une surprise et bien que nos plans soient (un peu) perturbés nous estimons avoir peu perdu par rapport à une majorite d' anciens collègues... pour lesquels, le monde s' écroule .
Comme le disait le fameux commissaire Biales dans le non moins fameux film "la citée de la peur":
"Laissez la police faire son travail, vous serez informes dès que nous aurons de nouvelles informations, please let the police ..."
