Island Dock, Inc., Kingston NY

(formerly Kingston Dry Dock & Construction Co.)

Most recent update: August 23, 2008.

Kingston Dry Dock was started by John Schoonmaker, a successful ice dealer, to build wooden cargo ships for the USSB in WWI.  This venture was not a success, but they survived to build ten "six-bitters" for the Coast Guard.  The successor company closed in the 1950s.  The yard was on the island in Kingston: see the site from the air on Google here.
