The iconic BIW Flag first appeared in a 1931 yacht construction advertising brochure under the banner “Bath Will Always Build Good Ships.” An excerpt from the advertising copy reads: “Bath-built boats contain more than steel and copper and wood and fiber. Into them is built the spirit of the Kennebec…absolute dependability, design and construction at the forefront of modern engineering skill…workers’ pride in craftsmanship from keel to truck.”
