Bishop Shipbuilding

Bishop Shipbuilding, Aransas Pass TX

Bishop Shipbuilding Corporation was started by T. L. Bishop, a fisherman, in 1965. The yard is supposed to have been at 1338 West Palm Drive, but I cannot find this address on Google. If anyone can point me to the shipyard's site, or can add to the table below, please email info@navalmarinearchive.com.
