History of the Owens Yacht Company 1930 - Annapolis - Baltimore - 1965

Charles Owens, Sr., father of four sons and a daughter, built custom boats on Spa Creek, in Eastport, Annapolis, Maryland, from 1925 to 1930. When he died in 1933, his young teenagers were left with a small boat building business and thus began their boat building careers. As boat orders began to increase after 1936, three of the sons, Charles, Jr., Norman and John B. decided to expand and purchased about eight acres on the Baltimore waterfront where the constructed new plants. It was at this site that they adopted the new auto industry production control systems and applied them to boat building techniques.

Their first new 32-foot Owens cruiser model was put on display in 1937 New York Boat Show. Their business grew rapidly in the early 1940s as pleasure boats and boating was at its peak before World War II. All three brothers were good sailors and spent their spare time racing and winning! It was at this time that they introduced their first 40-foot sailboat, the Owens Cutter. In 1950 they sold the design rights to Henry Hinckley in 1950 who went on to build the Cutter for the next five years. During the War years, they converted the shop to production boats and built many rescue boats and landing barges. And when the Korean War erupted the brothers bid and won contracts to build 75-foot minesweepers for the Navy.

Norman ------------------------------------ Charles, Jr .------------------------------------- John

They continued to grow and sales were up considerably in 1958-59 when they decided to hire Campbell-Ewald Advertising Agency to further their promotion and advertising. It was at this time that Cornelius Shields of Shields & Company, a well-known sailor and stock broker suggested they offer 20 percent of their company stock to the public. It opened on the New York Stock Exchange in 1959 at $8 per share which quickly oversold and the stock price rose to $12 per share. The Owens Company was probably the only boat company to offer stock on the open market at this time.

In 1957 the Owens Company discontinued manufacturing wooden boats of less than 20 feet and began to convert to fiberglass hulls. During this time their Baltimore facility could produce two 28-foot boats per day which cost $8,500 to $12,000 or three 35-foot boats per week with a price of $18,000 to $20,000 per boat. At this same time they were also building their own engines, known as Flagship Marine Engines. They were producing 500 Flagship engines per month for their complete line of boats, 18-foot outboards to 35-foot cruisers and runabouts. During its peak production years the Owens Company had 500 employees at their Baltimore plant.

By the 1960s the Owens brothers had retired and no longer took an active part in the business. The Owens Company became a division of the Brunswick Corporation which operated the business for ten years before selling the boat building division to Test Concorde Inc. The division was renamed Concorde Yacht Division - Brunswick Corp., but still retained the Owens name for the boats. In the early 1970s the Concorde Yacht Division ran into financial difficulties and liquidated the entire production facility eliminating almost all historical material from the original Owens Company. The sailboat cutter plans remain and are located at the Mystic Seaport Museum , in Mystic, Connecticut

Founded in 1925 by Charles Councilman Owens, the Owens Yacht Company (originally the Owens Boat Company) is remembered for their sleek and award-winning designs, as well as their innovation and entrepreneurship that contributed to advances in maritime technologies. The Owens Yacht Company grew and flourished through the efforts and cooperation of the children of Charles Owens; including Molly, Charles Junior (also known as "Chuck"), Norman, Jack, and Billy Owens. The company was eventually sold to the Brunswick Corporation in 1965, where the Owens name would disappear. This exhibit will highlight the distinguished history of the company, the boats that were created, and a few of the notable employees that contributed to the success of the Owens Yacht Company. The creation of this exhibit would not have been possible without the diligent oral histories collected by Mike Miron, an enthusiast of Annapolis history and the Owens' family.

1963 Owens 36 Express

Cleves, Ohio

Model 36 Express

Category Express Cruisers

Posted 1 Month Ago

Walking around the exterior of the boat it is readily apparent a good deal of care and upkeep have been done on the boat through out it's life. The paint is in really good shape and seems to indicate the boat could be on the water with just minimal effort. All deck surfaces and fiberglass seem to be in good condition with no noticeable / major flaking of the varnish and clear coat. The bright work does show some pitting in places but a little polish and clean-up would have it shining again and a perfect compliment to the "original" condition of the rest of the boat. There are a wealth of fit and finish pieces that come with the boat that will be up to the new owner in terms of installation based on how they want to finish out the boat. The mechanical systems of the boat all seem to be clean and properly maintained but could not be tested during the photo shoot due to the vessel being in storage. The new owner will likely want to have a mechanic go through things before splashing the boat but it would be surprising if anything beyond possibly fluid changes were needed before getting this 1963 Owens 36 footer in the water. Stock #223733 Well maintained freshwater 1963 Owens 36 Express! This classic is almost ready to hit the water! This 1963 Owens 36 harkens back to a simpler time and is sure to stir those nostalgic feelings in its new owner. The spacious aft-desk has plenty of room for passengers to "ride along" with the captain while underway and is partially covered by the original fiberglass hardtop. There is plenty of room to put some period correct patio furniture up here to round out the look of this wooden classic. Below deck you'll find things just as well kept as topside, even the classic hound's-tooth interior upholstery is in great shape. As you descend the stairs to your left you'll see the small galley that is perfect of making snacks for an afternoon voyage and the mini fridge is there to keep your beverages cold. The head is to your immediate right and once past it you'll see the dinette on the starboard side and a nice sitting bench on the port side. The v-berth has plenty of room for two passengers to overnight on this time capsule classic. The engine room below the aft deck is very clean and well kept. There is plenty of room to move and all systems seem to be in working order. The twin motors have Jasper rebuilt blocks but would appear to have the original Owens Flagship top ends with matching serial numbers. Reason for selling is commercial use plans have changed.

Posted Over 1 Month

1968 Owens Brigatine,Great opportunity for someone looking to break into the charter business. "FV Codzilla" is a federally documented vessel capable of taking up to six passengers. I have owned this boat for 7 years and have invested thousands in upgrades including a complete rewiring of the bridge this past spring. The vessel is powered by two Perkins T6.354's which run very strong and sip fuel. The boat has never left me stranded or on the wrong end of a towline, very dependable Perkins power and inexpensive to maintain. Unlike other popular diesel engines, parts are readily available and CHEAP!!! I have kept this vessel on a rigorous maintenance schedule and have every receipt dating back to day one. Oil and all filters changed every 100 hours, impellers and cooling system serviced every other season. She runs cool, quiet and vibration free. This boat was set-up specifically for groundfishing and it has proven to be a perfect vessel for such. The stern is over 100 sq ft and laid out to very comfortably fish six anglers. Cosmetically, the boat needs some attention topside and could certainly use some new paint, but overall a great boat for short money. The specs on the boat are as follows: Builder: Owens Concorde Division, Baltimore MdHull: All glass, hand laid 1968.OAL: 33' / 37' counting anchor pulpit. HUGE OPEN STERN...over 100 sq ft.

I would never sell this boat, way to much money invested, but have to move up to something bigger as my business has grown dramatically this past year. Its a great boat...solid, dependable and a "fish raiser" for sure. Been through some real rough stuff and she can take it like a champ. She does need some glass work above the waterline and basic cosmetics but its all there. $20,000 or best reasonable offer...very negotiable. Boat is in the water and ready for sea trial anytime. For more details and specs please visit my website at www.fv-codzilla.com and look at the "Fish Reports" section. I have the complete write-up and information all there. Thanks! $20000

What to know about the cargo ship Dali, the ocean monster that took down a Baltimore bridge

If stood upright, the dali would reach almost to the top of the eiffel tower in paris or about two-thirds of the way up the empire state building in new york, by nick perry | the associated press • published march 28, 2024 • updated on march 28, 2024 at 10:07 am.

Investigators began collecting evidence Wednesday from the cargo ship that plowed into Baltimore’s Francis Scott Key Bridge and caused its collapse.

The U.S. Coast Guard said the ship, named Dali, underwent “routine engine maintenance” in port beforehand. U.S. Coast Guard Rear Admiral Shannon Gilreath added that they were not informed of any problems. The ship collided into a support pillar early Tuesday, causing the span to buckle into the river.

In the waters below divers searched through twisted metal for several construction workers who plunged into the harbor. The bodies of two of six workers were recovered Wednesday. The others are presumed dead.

Here's what to know about the cargo ship Dali:

Two bodies recovered as Baltimore bridge collapse investigation continues

Baltimore bridge collapse: What we know, who are the victims and will it affect US supply chain?

How big is the dali cargo ship.

If stood upright, the Dali would reach almost to the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris or about two-thirds of the way up the Empire State Building in New York.

It can carry the equivalent of almost 10,000 standard-sized metal shipping containers, and at the time of the accident was carrying nearly 4,700 containers. But while those figures are impressive, the Dali pales in comparison to the world's largest container ships, which can carry more than 24,000 containers. There are environmental and economic advantages to operating giant container ships, but their sheer size and weight make them difficult to maneuver and stop — especially when something goes wrong.

Dali length: 984 feet (300 meters). Weight: 95,000 tons when empty.

Capacity: 10,000 20-foot (6-meter) containers.

Who owns the Dali cargo ship?

The ship shares a name with one of history's most celebrated artists, Spanish surrealist painter Salvador Dali.

Built by South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industries, one of the world's largest shipbuilders, the Dali was launched in late 2014. It's owned by Grace Ocean Private Ltd, flies a Singapore flag and is powered by diesel engines.

Danish shipping giant Maersk had chartered the Dali for a planned trip from Baltimore to Sri Lanka, but the ship didn't get far.

See the moment the Baltimore bridge collapses after cargo ship hits support pier

What happened with the dali cargo ship the day of the baltimore bridge collision.

The crew aboard the ship sent a mayday call early Tuesday saying they had lost power and had no control of the steering system. Minutes later, the ship rammed one of the bridge's columns, causing the entire structure to collapse within seconds.

The ship was moving at about 8 knots, or 9 mph (15 kph). The mayday gave just enough time for authorities to stop bridge traffic and likely prevent more deaths , but not enough time to clear the construction crew that was filling potholes on the bridge. Divers on Wednesday recovered the bodies of two of the workers.

All of the nearly two dozen crew members from the Dali were accounted for after the accident, with one taken to a hospital with minor injuries.

The Dali passed a June 2023 inspection in Chile. A faulty pressure gauge for the fuel heaters was identified but fixed before the vessel left the port, according to authorities. The Dali was then inspected in September by the U.S. Coast Guard in New York, and no problems were found. Before it left Baltimore, the ship underwent routine engine maintenance, according to the Coast Guard.

Federal and state officials say the crash appears to be an accident.

The Coast Guard has downloaded the voyage data recorder and sent it to the National Transportation Safety Board, which is building a timeline of what led to the crash, and a preliminary report is expected in the coming weeks. Singapore also plans to carry out its own investigation, which it says will be to identify lessons for the future rather than determine liability.

In addition to trying to clear the channel floor of the bridge debris, officials will need to assess the damage to the Dali and make sure it doesn’t leak fuel or sink. Investigators found damage to at least 13 containers on the ship.

The Dali will then likely be towed back to the port and the cargo offloaded.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg says it’s too early to say how long it will take to reopen the Port of Baltimore or replace the destroyed bridge. He noted it initially took five years to build the bridge.
