Tacoma Boatbuilders

Form Association To

Publicize Facilities

In 1973, a small group of enter- prising Tacoma, Wash., business- men connected with the ship and boatbuilding industries put their ideas together and formed a nu- cleus that was to become known as Associated Maritime Indus- tries of Tacoma.

The Association was first pre- sented publicly in the Com/Fish

Mart Show in Seattle last fall.

Members manned the attractive booth, which told the maritime story of Tacoma today.

The Association will maintain a direction in spotlighting Ta- coma as a major center of pro- gressive ship and boatbuilding and suppliers of marine equip- ment and gear.

The Tacoma maritime indus- tries have always been known as a community of cooperation be- tween businesses, and the new association furthers this concept and has given it a sense of direc- tion.

Presentations are being made to leading naval architects and persons connected with the mari- time trade throughout the world interested in ship and boatbuild- ing, conversion, repair, and equip- ment. These presentations will offer the skills and abilities of maritime builders and suppliers for virtually all styles and types of vessels up to as large as the new super tuna seiners.

With the advent of the Alaska oil pipeline construction and need for tugboat and barge new con- struction and repair, Tacoma yards offer facilities, experience and an advantageous location.

Some of the Association members are already completing contracts resulting from needs of the Alaska area.

Members of the Association in- clude builders of pleasure craft of all sizes in fiberglass, alumi- num, steel and wood in either cus- tom or standard designs; builders of work boats and commercial fishing vessels also in standard or custom designs, including sport- fisherman, gilnetters, trollers, sal- mon seiners, king crab boats and processing ships, and tuna sein- ers ; and suppliers of the material and equipment necessary to build the quality vessels for which Ta- coma has long been noted.

Replies and inquiries received at the Association's mailing ad- dress, P.O. Box 518, Tacoma,

Wash. 98401, will be sorted and answered. All correspondence and bid requests will be made public to the members for their review.
