      [Carl] August Smith var knapt 30 gammel og utdannet skbipsbygger da han gikk sammen med sin 5 år yngre bror Fritz [Johan Frederik] og dannet firmaet A. & F. Smith. De leide lokaler hos faren [Mads Henrik] og drev kjøbmannshandel, men slog sig snart på skibsbygning og rederivirksomhet. Da Mads Henrik Smith døde i 1869 overtok August ledelsen av hans firma, mens Fritz aleen overtok ledelsen av firma A. & F. Smith og drev det fram til et av landets største seilskuterederier. Da Fritz Smith døde i 1882 ble firmaet drevet videre av sønnen Mads Henrik til ca. 1900. I løpet av de knapt 50 år firmaet eksisterte, eide det helt eller delvis til sammen ca. 50 skuter. De fleste av disse var bygd i Tvedestranddistriktet. Bare de aller siste, stålbarkene Hirotha, Skjold og Stjørn, var bygd i utlandet.
