Christensen blackout continues

Christensen shipyard remains closed, and despite attempted correspondence from SuperyachtNews.com, there is still no clarification on its status. However, more details have emerged in local media reports.…

According to new reports from local news publication, The Columbian the media blackout at Vancouver-based shipyard Christensen continues, with no news on the long-term status of the superyacht builder.

Unable to reach any Christensen personnel, SuperyachtNews.com contacted president, Joe Foggia directly but has received no response.

But The Columbian claims that, despite the lack of clarification, workers did appear at the yard to collect paycheques and told reporters that they had been emailed the previous day notifying them of the distribution of wages.

It has also come to light that Stellar Industrial Supply is suing Christensen, as one of six defendants, for $966,000 of unpaid hull construction materials.
