Complete MTBs were taken up to the Lachine Canal and to Lake St. Louis for trials before delivery. The company also built 26' harbour tenders using cold moulded 2 ply cedar planks and were similar to the MTBs. The plant also made Mosquito aircraft fuselages that were sent to Ontario to complete the airframes. After the war only three ships were ordered with only two completed. After 1957 the plant and company ceased to exist.
