About

Bob Derecktor started the business in 1947 with a small shop in Mamaroneck, New York. The company moved early into aluminum construction, which enabled it to build larger yachts and commercial vessels, including racing sailboats, motor yachts and high-speed ferries. It remains a family business.

Notable deliveries include America's Cup winner Stars and Stripes, the 85m Tim Heywood designed Cakewalk (2010), described as the largest private yacht built in the USA since 1930, 238 ft fast ferries for the State of Alaska, and three hybrid catamarans including Captain Ben Moore (2019). Derecktor acquired Robinhood Marine Center in Maine in 2016. To mark 75 years, it published the book Derecktor: The Story of an American Shipyard.
