Derecktor Shipyards Files for Chapter 11
January 23, 2012
Derecktor Shipyards Conn. LLC, based in Bridgeport, Connecticut, has announced that it is seeking protection under the Chapter 11 bankruptcy and reorganization laws.

The release says that the shipyard is seeking “strategic alternatives”, including an investor or buyer of the yard.
