Ann: Austal USA to buy MARRS, page-27

‘Hello sailor’ as the woman said to that man who knew the high seas so well when he moored a technical super yacht next to her rowing boat.

I stayed my strong urge to sell it cheap ..... on the rational view Austal is no penny dreadful lithium company but a solid international business.
(...and that it was grounding to have red in my portfolio..... - although, as it transpired, that was not such a good thought ) ... (um especially in regards a shipping company?)

And thank you for hoving into view my captain of strange and lovely skies and of and mystery oceans.

And - to bring some ‘news’ to this forum - speaking of grounding, Austal is trying to tempt people to live permanently in Mobile... (!);

..Plus a little more (from yesterday) on Austal’s bid for the the new Spirit Of Tasmania work;

However, re this contract, if Tasmanians have long (and powerful?) memories the name Austal might not be so popular ...
