Good point Roy, supply and demand, to be honest, it sounds like Ferguson Marine are stuck between a rock and a hard place under the current contract for the ferries and are reporting that they stand to lose £39M on the build alone, mainly due to slippages cause by the Government / CALMAC fiddling with the design and requirements during the ships construction, sounds all too familiar to me, this was partly the reason that Nimrod MRA4 was scrapped, it doesn't sound to me like they have a rosy future!
