Marscot Boats

Palmer Scott & Co., Inc.

New Bedford, Massachusetts


This innovative company began building wood sailboats in the 1930's and expanded to include making fiberglass boats in the 1950's. Their fiberglass boats were large, sea-going boats for the near-shore fisherman or recreationist. This puts the company among the first fiberglass boat builders.


Later on, Marscot Plastics appears as a separate division within the company. Palmer Scott & Co. later merged with Beetle Boats to form American Boat Building Corp. and finally with O'Day and Associates. More information is available at the Dolphin 24 sailboat website: http://www.dolphin24.org/history_Palmer_Scott.html
