1978
Controversial circumstances surrounding the yard closure
Historical accounts characterize the 1978 closure as suspicious because Gusto was placed within a restructuring category dominated by large shipbuilders, despite its specialization in medium-sized offshore construction. The process involved the Dutch shipbuilding policy commission and the strategic interests of Rijn-Schelde-Verolme. The available reference describes the controversy but does not establish a legal finding of wrongdoing.
