Episode Details

Grand Bahama Shipyard just crushed its busiest cruise repair season ever, fixing 28 ships and pumping life into the local economy. With a tight November-to-May schedule, they pulled off the impossible: keeping cruise lines happy while raising quality standards. The team expanded dramatically—24% more Bahamian workers and 65% more local subcontractors—fueling a ripple effect that brought in 15,000 crew and contractors, boosting hotels, restaurants, and shops across the island. And they’re not stopping there: a $665 million upgrade includes a brand-new dry dock and another on the way, positioning them as one of the region’s biggest and most capable shipyards. This isn’t just about ships—it’s about people, growth, and keeping Grand Bahama on the global map.
