Following your link, it seems like this Kenneth Carver fellow owns nearly the lot of them:

Four of those were built by Marinette Marine (from Googling their hull numbers), but one is larger and aluminium, whereas three are steel (two of the smaller steel landing craft missing, sunk, or sold to salvage?):
