Bradenton Designer Moves Muir-Maid Boat Plant to Airport Site
John W. Muir, once a New York manufacturing designer, relocated his Bradenton boat shop from 3807 Manatee Ave West to a 10,000 square foot Rt 301 facility at Sarasota Bradenton Airport. He now employs seven workers to make eight boats weekly, producing the fiberglass Muir-Maid line including 18, 15, and soon 17 foot models. Dealers across Florida carry the craft which blends fishing and runabout use and features a pressure deck, air chamber bottom, and non skid forward area.
