Gasoline Tankers and Barges ~ Shipbuilding History

Gasoline Tankers and Barges

(YOG, YOGN)

Few of the early YOGs were self-propelled: the use of YOGN for barges did not get started until WWII and the earlier vessels retained their YOG designation. As a result, it is now difficult to tell which vessels were tankers and which were barges.
