Three motor boats were at varying stages of construction in March of 1948 at the Pacific Boat Building Company shop, 759 Port of Tacoma Road. "Freedom" at the front of the line of boats was nearing completion. John Breskovich had owned Puget Sound Boat Building Corp. since 1942. In August 1945 he took over the assets of Pacific Boat Building Company. The two companies continued to retain separate identities; Pacific Boat converted to production of aluminum pleasure boats, and larger boat production was turned over to Puget Sound Boat Building.
