Industrial Shipping Co., Ltd.
Mahone Bay
Nova Scotia
According to an article in the July 1, 1961 edition of The Financial Post, Industrial Shipping Co., Ltd. manufactured and sold molded plywood boats across Canada and the US since just after WWII. Early in 1961 the company was acquired by American Boatbuilding Corp., a company formed through the mergers of the Beetle Boat Company and Marscot Plastics (Jan 5, 1958 New York Times). At the time of the article, Industrial Shipping produced a 17' outboard fiberglass cruiser and a 16' Falcon-class fiberglass day sailer.
If you have additional information, please contact us so that we may preserve and share the history of these old boats.
