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.

    Designed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and constructed by the
    Norfolk Shipbuilding and Drydock Corporation of Norfolk, Virginia, in 1981.

  1. YAQUINA (Dredge)

  2. The hopper dredge, operated by a merchant marine crew, was delivered to the Portland District in 1981.
    The "Yaquina" helps to maintain the entrance bars, rivers and harbors on the coasts of Oregon, California and Washington.
    Because of its size, the "Yaquina" is particularly well-suited for dredging the small, shallow coastal entrances and
    smaller, shifting sand deposits in river channels. From: US Army Core of Engineers

 

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 incarnation of the ship (ie, for each entry in the "Ship Name and Designation History" section). 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.
