Notes historiques

George Schneider (Email to Nauticapedia 07/12/2021) stated "Point Loma (243736) came out in 1943, and was sold in 1972. This vessel was modified to be a hospital ship for use by a missionary group on the Amazon River and departed San Diego as Esparanca on a cargo ship. Considering her northern wood and a tropical climate, it's no surprise we haven't heard about her in recent years."

Propriétaires et capitaines

In 1948 she was owned by the Star and Crescent Boat Co., San Diego CA USA.
