Paspebiac Shipyard, Paspebiac QC

Most recent update: August 2, 2010.

There have been shipyards in Paspebiac, a tiny community on the south shore of the Gaspe Peninsula, since colonial times.  The yard documented here was started in 1961, under the management of Marine Industries Ltd., (MIL), and closed in 1969.  It was briefly revived from 1985 to 1988, under the management of West Coast Manly Shipyard.  You can see it from the air on Google here.
