Proposal for Fast-Boat Manufacturing Revival in Milwaukee
DEFENSE
Milwaukee is set to revive its fast-boat manufacturing industry, which has been dormant since World War II, through a proposal that includes collaboration with companies like Mercury Marine and Garmin Marine. The initiative aims to establish a manufacturing site for various boat models, enhance local job creation, and attract investment, while also expanding the University of Wisconsin's boat design curriculum.
This development is expected to bolster the city's economy and tax base, potentially involving the U.S. Navy in innovative boat designs.
