Ship Name and Designation History

This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during its lifetime. The list is in chronological order.

    Coastal Patrol Yacht
    Built 1931 as yacht

  1. SAMONA II
    Acquired U.S. Navy November 4 1940

  2. USS AMETHYST PYc-3
    Commissioned February 27 1941 - Decommissioned February 2 1944
    Transferred to U.S. Coast Guard March 10 1944

  3. USCGC AMETHYST WPYc-3
    Commissioned March 10 1944 - Decommissioned February 27 1946

    Struck from Naval Register March 12 1946
    Transferred to Maritime Commission September 11 1946

  4. SAMONA II
    Sold (Date unknown) to Samuel K. Rindge, Los Angeles, original name restored

  5. PUDLO
    Sold 1950 to David P. Hamilton, Shreveport, LA and renamed

  6. EXPLORER
    Sold 1962 to Charles Y. Martin, Houston, TX and renamed
    Reported still in use (2000)

Naval Covers

This section lists active links to the pages displaying covers associated with the ship. There should be a separate set of pages for each name of the ship (for example, Bushnell AG-32 / Sumner AGS-5 are different names for the same ship so there should be one set of pages for Bushnell and one set for Sumner). Covers should be presented in chronological order (or as best as can be determined).

Since a ship may have many covers, they may be split among many pages so it doesn't take forever for the pages to load. Each page link should be accompanied by a date range for covers on that page.

  1. Covers Page 1     (DATE RANGE)

 

Postmarks

This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a separate set of postmarks for each incarnation of the ship (ie, for each entry in the "Ship Name and Designation History" section). Within each set, the postmarks should be listed in order of their classification type. If more than one postmark has the same classification, then they should be further sorted by date of earliest known usage.

A postmark should not be included unless accompanied by a close-up image and/or an image of a cover showing that postmark. Date ranges MUST be based ONLY ON COVERS IN THE MUSEUM and are expected to change as more covers are added.
 
>>> If you have a better example for any of the postmarks, please feel free to replace the existing example.
