Broward Yachts, Dania Beach FL

(formerly Dooley's Basin and Broward Marine)

Most recent update: May 7, 2012.

Broward Marine was established by Frank Denison, in 1948, on the site of the former Dooley's Basin & Dry Dock Company, which had been organized in 1937, specifically for the war effort, and which had closed after the war.  The yard was located where Lauderdale Marine Service is now, on the New River, just east of I-95: see it from the air on Google here. The Saugatuck yard was started in 1977.  Ownership changed hands in about 2000 and the new owners moved construction to a yard in Dania Beach, just off Port Everglades.  If anyone can clarify this for me or add to this table, please e-mail me at timcolton@aol.com.  Visit the shipyard at www.browardmarine.com and see the Dania Beach yard from the air on Google here.
