United States Marine

Gulfport MS

United States Marine was founded in 1971 and for its first 16 years built racing sailboats. In 1987, however, it began building high-speed patrol craft, initially in an association with Halter Marine - Equitable Shipyards, but later on its own. Its yard in East New Orleans was destroyed by Katrina and the company relocated to Gulfport MS, to a facility on the Industrial Seaway, immediately west of the Lorraine Road bridge. It later leased additional space from Trinity Yachts, both in their Gulfport shipyard - the former Halter-Gulfport - and in their New Orleans shipyard - the former Halter-Equitable - and also subcontracted work to Trinity Yachts' successor, Gulf Coast Shipyard Group.
