The two companies are still discussing the particulars of the transition, Gilbert said. Christensen yachts has begun packing its hardware to be trucked to Tennessee, though some of it is still needed for construction, and Vigor may also want to purchase and retain some of it.
The deal was announced Feb. 1 and caps a series of tumultuous years for the Vancouver yacht builder, which at its peak employed nearly 500. The move to Tennessee will leave the company well-positioned to adapt to the latest trends in the yacht industry, according to President Jim Gilbert.
Dave Christensen founded the Christensen yachts company — then known as Christensen Shipyards, Ltd. — in 1985 and Luken was a co-owner from 2003 onward. In 2015, the company went into receivership and Luken bought the remainder of its assets and restarted it as a new business entity.
