Canadian Company Reports

Allied Shipbuilders

Situated on the north shore of Vancouver

Harbor is Allied Shipbuilders, which up until the mid-1980s, operated a near capacity newbuilding facility producing various types of vessels. Business conditions led the com- pany to concentrate more on repairs, while performing new construction as needed. This strategy has proven itself, as the yard now drydocks and repairs a large portion of the

Canadian west coast commercial fleet. The yard services more than 200 vessels from 50 to 250 ft. (15.2 to 76.2 m) annually at its three floating drydocks.
