Resurrected Davie Shipbuilding aims to become North America’s most modern shipyard

Alex Vicefield and James Davies, co-founders of parent company Inocea Group, plan to build expedition cruise ships at the yard some day

Canada’s Davie Shipbuilding converted Capital Ship Management’s 23,792-dwt container ship Asterix (built 2009) into an auxiliary oiler replenishment ship under the same name from 2015 to 2018 for the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN). Davie Shipbuilding owns the vessel and charters it to the RCN, which has the option to buy the ship at some point.
