Is this really correct? I visited Najad back in December. I know that had a decent Dusseldorf and sold a number of new boats they had pre built. Looking at their website all looks ok still.

Read on Mobo forum http://www.ybw.com/forums/showthread.php?350896-Nordwest-amp-Najad-bankrupt posts 5, 6 & 7 seem sure.

If you want to see some innovation click videos and then click the 4th video. They have a unique self docking system that will hold at the boat against the tide while a single hander ties up the boat, unless I am missing something.

Shades of Mr Philips "Back a bit sideways!"

Pre built is an absolute giveaway that they are in trouble

Actually the HR system just uses two retractable thrusters, one in the bow, one in the stern, nothing to do with Volvo. You might be confusing it with the 360 docking used by Jeanneau/Beneteau which has a rotating sail drive.

Like the Wally system then
