Boat Builders

Boatbuilding is the construction of boats. Shipbuilding is the construction of ships. It normally takes place in a specialized facility known    as a shipyard. Shipbuilders, originally called shipwrights, follow a specialized occupation that traces its roots to before recorded history.

Shipbuilding and ship repairs, both commercial and military, are referred to as the "naval sector". The dismantling of ships is called ship breaking. The construction of boats is a similar activity called boatbuilding.

However, current trends indicate that China will soon be the largest shipbuilding nation in the world. Currently, as of May 2007, 425 new building contracts have been taken by Chinese shipbuilding companies; this comes to 45% of the global vessel order intake. In terms of  orders and projected output, China is now statistically the largest shipbuilding nation in the world, owing largely to recently increased investment in the industrial base, as well as the fact that South Korean and Japanese shipyards are currently operating at 100% capacity and are predicted to be backlogged for the next two years at least.
