==History==
In 1916 John E. Matton moved his ship building business south from Waterford to Van Schaick Island, and the shipyard would continue to build canal boats, barges, tugboats, and police boats until closing in 1983.〔〔 From December 1941 to July 1943 during World War II the shipyard produced five SC-497 class submarine chasers, SC-985 through SC-989 for the US Navy, and from February–June 1944 four tugs for the US Army. In 1945 four of the sub chasers went to service with the US Coast Guard while SC-986 went to the USSR.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Matton Shipyard, Cohoes NY )〕 At the time of closing it was one of the longest operating tug and barge shipbuilders in the United States.〔 The shipyard is currently owned by the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) as part of the Peebles Island State Park, which is turning the shipyard into an educational center, museum, and home for historic vessels. The motor ship ''Day Peckinpaugh'' is berthed here and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://www.nysm.nysed.gov/exhibits/longterm/peckinpaugh/PeckinpaughInfo.html )〕
