Tacoma Boat was established in 1926 and built many boats during World War II.[1] The shipyard grew rapidly in the 1970s and early 1980s but got into difficulty with several large government contracts and filed for Chapter 11 protection in 1985.[1] It emerged from bankruptcy in 1986 but could not recover and closed in 1992.[1] In 1998, the company was liquidated.[1]
