I believe he was no longer required when the new owner took over, I would suspect if he was of any use to them he would have been kept on.

Given his recent history it seems more than fair.

If you look at http://oysterstory.info then Tydeman seems to be the principal player. I appreciate he will have a mandate from the shareholders etc, however he was to one saying all was normal and to enjoy your yacht.

Lets hope no one at Fairline has a complaint as based on past form as reported they will get short shrift.

There are still unanswered questions re Oyster ( who on the face of it had a good order book, were solvent and had a claim against the insured sub contracted hull builder).

I wish Fairline well, and experienced marine executives are hard to come by given the small market size. They have impressive plans and on the face of it are selling well.
