BURGER BOAT

Burger Boat, Manitowoc WI

Burger Boat was founded in 1863 in Manitowoc WI, by Henry B. Burger and continues in business today. The original shipyard was sold in 1902 to what is now Manitowoc Corporation, but the next generation of the Burger family had already started a new shipyard in 1892, across from the old one. Burger Boat Co was incorporated in 1915 and operated for 70 years. Then in 1986 it was sold to John McMillan, who sold it in 1989 to Tacoma Boat, which closed in 1990. The present owners, Shipbuilders of Wisconsin, Inc., d.b.a. Burger Boat Company, bought it in 1993 and have returned to the boatbuilding business, only on a somewhat reduced scale. If anyone can fill any of the gaps in the table below, please e-mail your input to me at timcolton@aol.com. Visit the shipyard at www.burgerboat.com. You can see it from the air on Google here. Comments or queries, please email info@navalmarinearchive.com.
