BOLAND & CORNELIUS UPDATE from 1957 to Present By Mike Nicholls In the October 1947 issue of The Marine Historian (Volume 2, number 2) the fleet list for the Boland and Cornelius fleet was featured. In 1957, Volume 2 was redone in a bound volume and the fleet lists were updated. This list will bring the fleet up to 1987. The vessels that were with Boland & Cornelius in 1957 are reviewed plus all new construction and acquisitions.
