Platzer Boat Works
Houston TX
The Platzer shipyard was originally on Clear Creek, in Kemah, but relocated to Greens Bayou in 1925. From the 1970s on, it was essentially a builder of tank barges and was sold to Trinity Marine in 1993. Trinity sold it to First Wave Marine in 1997, which operated it as a repair yard until it closed in 2002.
