Alabama Shipyard LLC

Founded in 1916 by D. R. Dunlap, our Gulf Coast shipyard first began as the Alabama Dry Dock and Shipbuilding Company. It was one of the original nine emergency yards funded by the U.S. Maritime Commission during WWII, becoming one of the largest employers in Southern Alabama while producing Liberty Ships and T-2 Tankers for the war effort. Now the Alabama Shipyard, our fully-equipped facility is a fundamental part of Mobile's history. And our team is dedicated to upholding Mobile Bay's longstanding tradition of first-class service in the Gulf Coast.
