Todd Shipyards

The Todd Shipyards Corporation, commonly known as Todd Shipyards, was an American shipbuilding and ship repair company. Founded in 1916 as the William H. Todd Corporation, the company produced many ships during World War I and was a major part of the Emergency Shipbuilding Program during World War II. At its peak, the company owned and operated shipyards on the West Coast of the United States, East Coast of the United States, and the Gulf.

In the post-war years, Todd Shipyards performed building and maintenance work for, among others, the United States Navy and Royal Australian Navy, the United States Coast Guard, and the Washington State Ferries. The company filed for bankruptcy in 1987 after years of financial struggles. It resumed operations in 1991 as the Todd Pacific Shipyards Corporation after closing all locations except for its shipyard in Seattle, Washington.

The company continued more limited operations in the Puget Sound region of Washington until it was acquired by Vigor Industrial in 2011. Todd Shipyards became a wholly owned subsidiary of Vigor and operated under the name Vigor Shipyards for a number of years.
