"In 1861, Charles Mallory established the CH Mallory and Company Steamship Line.  In 1879, Robert Palmer put steam railways into his ship building plant in Noank.  His company became one of the largest in the United States at the time for making wooden ships."  A very young Bruce Avery, owner of Noank Marine Service, fulfilled his destiny by carrying on the tradition of maintaining and preserving wooden and traditional boats.  Bruce's knowledge of boats and his passion for the sea and sailing have made him iconic to the boating community.
