33661 - Ship and boat building

This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in operating a shipyard or manufacturing boats. Shipyards are fixed facilities with dry docks and fabrication equipment capable of building a ship, defined as water-craft suitable or intended for other than personal or recreational use. Boats are defined as water-craft suitable or intended for personal or recreational use. The activities of shipyards include the construction of ships, their repair, conversion and alteration, the production of prefabricated ship sections and barge sections, and specialized services, such as ship scaling, when performed at the shipyard.

• Exclusion(s)

  • manufacturing prefabricated metal ship, boat and barge sections, not at a shipyard or boat yard (See 332319 Other plate work and fabricated structural product manufacturing)
  • ship painting, joinery, carpentry work, and electrical wiring installation (See 238 Specialty trade contractors)
  • ship repairs performed in floating drydocks (See 488390 Other support activities for water transportation)
