历史记录
In 1970-1999 this vessel was employed at the Long Beach Naval Shipyard. George Schneider (June 2026) writes: Although YFP's are generally considered electrical generating barges, I believe YFP 2 and YFP 3 were converted to supply steam to ships being decommissioned at San Diego so their steam auxiliaries could still run while the boilers were being preserved. In this photo, there are two barges in front of her, a SWOB and a YC. Even so, the photo shows the deckhouses and mast that were added. A better (but non-proprietary) view is on the Navsource site referenced below.
