Over 3,600 men and women working in this specialist sector continue to build on this island’s established reputation for marine excellence through state-of-the-art design, unparalleled craftsmanship and innovatory spirit.

And all this is set against the backdrop of the very thing that has ensured the UK’s renowned marine tradition – its island geography.
