Julius Petersen, Nyack, New York


HARD BOILED... TO ORDER

When everything went “black” - and the watchword was harder-hitting, faster and sturdier Fighting craft ... in a hurry the Jullius Petersen shipbuilding family rolled up its sleeves and produced Sub Chasers, Army Rescue boats, and Airplane Tenders each one a real Victory specimen like the Pan American Airplane Tender and the formidable Sub-Chaser, shown below.

Later, when America dons its Peace smile, and the yacht lover turns to sunny cruise days and moonlight horizons, Jullius Petersen will again take their place as even more skillful creators of pleasure ships that delight because of their notable beauty, enduring seaworthiness, and constant top performance.

Let’s toast that Day!

With the coming of Peace, visit us at Nyack-- just a short ride from New York and note our splendid facilities for building, servicing, storing and repairing. You will remember this trip with pleasure.

From the 1944 Navy Year Book.
