Osmond O'Brien Shipyard

The Osmond O’Brien Shipyard built vessels from 1856 until 1918 in Noel, Nova Scotia.

[1] The most prominent ship captain of the shipyard was Captain William Scott, who became known as the Mariner of Minasville, after which a film short was made.

[4] Sixteen years after the Schooner Hibernia was built, the last ship - the J. Miller - was built during the brief wooden ship revival of World War I (1918).

[5][6][7] A monument was erected in Noel, Nova Scotia to the shipyard and the builders and crew members associated with the shipyard in 2005.
