Gasoline Tankers (YOG) 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. If anyone can add to this table, please email info@navalmarinearchive.com.
