Jule Marshall has been building boats since 1966. Prior to Californian
and then Navigator, he and another guy were responsible for the design
of Ericson sailboats.

The Californian and then Navigator lines were started in the 1970's as
an American built alternative to trawlers and pilothouses from Asia.
