Svendborg Skibsværft

In 1925 the yard went bankrupt, but new capital were raised by local businesses and marked a new prosperous period with several orders specializing in mid-size ferries for islands like Langeland and Ærø.

Møller bought a large share of the stocks intending to merge the yard with Odense Steel Shipyard, but it was later bought by A/S Carl Nielsen.

Under the leadership of former ØK-director Per Glente the yard expanded reaching a peak in the period 1988-1992 when the Royal Danish Navy ordered four new Ocean Patrol Vessels.

Efforts were made to sell similar ships to South Africa and other countries, but after the production of two coastal trading vessels no more ships were ordered before the company was declared bankrupt in 1999.

The yard produced around 200 new ships in its 92 years of operation.
