current account = imports - exports

so how was that different then would I said? The Bahamas most likely import much more then they export, so that should lower their GDP.

America imports more than it exports.

I know that, hence why I cannot go to Walmart and buy American brand clothing. I also believe the United States goes by GNP and not GDP.

The Bahamas survive on imports.

I don't know if you were making a quip here or not.

Do the Bahamas actually produce the ships? My understanding is that in GDP, you account for exports and imports, and I don't believe the Bahamas would export much of anything.

Yes, HQ is located in Nassau. They actually build the ships there.

I don't really know. I never had the desire to study economies of other countries.

I go on lots of cruises. Learn the ships, and my uncle works for Royal Carribean.

We quit using GNP around 1992 iirc.

That is what happens when you get a Detroit Public education. We use text books from the mid 80's.

LMFAO no fuggin way. Where in the hell do they build them in Nassau? There's nothing there that could support a build that big.

Dude, easily. lol

1st the pull into a lock and slowly drain the water and let the ship sit on some heavy duty stands. Known as "Dry Docking".

They install the rooms/cabins like so:
