Lockley Newport Boats was an American boat builder based in Newport Beach, California . The company specialized in the design and manufacture of fiberglass sailboats .[1] [2]
The company was founded in 1964 and went though several name changes and changes of ownership prior to going out of business in 1988.[1]
History [ edit ]
Lightning Windmill Kite
The company was founded as Newport Boats in 1964, building a line of sailing dinghies and small daysailers . An east coast factory was established in Gloucester, Virginia to provide boats for that market.[1]
The company was acquired by the Browning Arms Company , a firearms manufacturer and later by Elgin International . In 1976 the company was bought by Lockley Manufacturing and was renamed Lockley Newport Boats . In 1981 the name was changed again to Gloucester Yachts . The company went out of business in 1988.[1]
The molds for a number of the designs built by the company were later bought by Classic Yachts of Chanute, Kansas and produced, including the Gloucester 22 and the Lockley-Newport LN-23 , which were built until 2000.[3] [4]
In a series of 2010 boat reviews Steve Henkel criticized the company's work, calling the quality of construction "so-so", noting that they were aimed at a budget market and that "the low cost is obtained partly by offering what is usually standard equipment as optional".[2]
