Proposal for Fast-Boat Manufacturing Revival in Milwaukee
Milwaukee is set to revive its fast-boat manufacturing industry, which has been dormant since World War II, through a proposal that includes collaboration with companies like Mercury Marine and Garmin Marine. The initiative aims to establish a manufacturing site for various boat models, enhance local job creation, and attract investment, while also expanding the University of Wisconsin's boat design curriculum. This development is expected to bolster the city's economy and tax base, potentially involving the U.S. Navy in innovative boat designs.

Milwaukee is being positioned to welcome a new fast-boat manufacturing industry, reviving a historical maritime legacy that ended after World War II. The last boat was launched in 1944 by the Froemming Brothers shipyards.
Currently, Milwaukee lacks any boat-building activities, missing out on job creation and economic growth. The proposal suggests establishing a manufacturing site that would produce a range of boats, including high-speed models.
Plans include collaboration with companies like Mercury Marine and Garmin Marine for advanced design and engineering. A marine design institute and a sales center would complement the manufacturing efforts, with the University of Wisconsin expanding its boat design curriculum.
The initiative aims to attract investment and create a competitive maritime sector, potentially involving the U.S. Navy in drone interceptor boat designs. The development is seen as a pathway to new wealth and a revitalized tax base for Milwaukee.
