WORLD WAR I ERA CARGO SHIPS --
with One Smokestack, Two Single Masts, and Raised Hull Islands Forward (Forecastle) and Aft (Poop)

Ten of the U.S. Navy's WWI era cargo ships had one smokestack, two single masts, and raised hull islands forward (forecastle) and aft (poop).

To facilitate identification, these vessels have been placed in two sub-groups, one with a foreign built ship and one of ships built to a single Emergency Fleet Corporation design.

This page features a table (with links to individual ships) of World War I era U.S. Navy cargo ships with one smokestack, two single masts, and raised hull islands forward (forecastle) and aft (poop), plus a photograph of each ship in this group.


Ships in this group:

TEN SHIPS with ONE SMOKESTACK (Funnel), TWO SINGLE MASTS, AND RAISED HULL ISLANDS FORWARD (FORECASTLE) AND AFT (POOP), subdivided as shown below:
