Dooley's Basin
Fort Lauderdale FL
Most recent update: August 26, 2021.
Dooley's Basin & Dry Dock Company was organized in 1937 for the war effort and closed after the war, having built 97 air-sea-rescue boats. It was later bought by Frank Denison and re-established as Broward Marine. The yard was located where Lauderdale Marine Center is now, on the New River, just east of I-95.
