Founded in 1942, Marinette Marine was a prolific builder of wooden barges for bulk hauling in its early years, but using tried and proven shipbuilding methods perfected by other shipyards during the Second World War the yard grew into being a relatively sophisticated builder of small ships and boats.

Building mainly commercial craft at first, the yard began receiving government contracts in the 1960's and has since become one of the preemininent builders for both US Federal and State government vessels. Purchased by the Manitowoc Corp. in 1999, the yard was purchased by the Italian Fincantieri Marine Group and now operates as Marinette Marine.
