PM Warns: $60m shipyard is not necessarily permanent

Read storyGRAND BAHAMA: A new $60 million drydock opened in Grand Bahama last Saturday, expanding a service that already serves 70 percent of the cruise ships in the region.

The drydock is one of the largest in the world at 310 meters by 54 meters wide.

It is the third drydock at the Grand Bahama Shipyard.

At the opening, Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham welcomed the investment but also expressed a note of caution:
"We here in the Bahamas are fully cognizant of another reality and that is this shipyard is mobile. It can be picked up and taken away any day."
