The Design 1006 ship (full name Emergency Fleet Corporation Design 1006) was a wood-hulled cargo ship design approved for production by the United States Shipping Board's Emergency Fleet Corporation (EFT) in World War I.[1] They were referred to as the "Daugherty"-type[1] after A. A. Daugherty, the president of the National Shipbuilding Company.[2] The USSB ordered a total of 40 hulls from three shipyards: National Shipbuilding Company of Orange, Texas shipyard (28 ordered, 16 cancelled); Union Bridge & Construction Company of Morgan City, Louisiana shipyard (6 hulls ordered, 6 cancelled);[1] and Dirks Blodgett Shipbuilding Company of Pascagoula, Mississippi (6 hulls ordered but built as Design 1001).[3] The design was altered by National Shipbuilding increasing the deadweight to 5,000 tons (the official designation was changed to Design 1056).[1] Only 12 were completed for the USSB while two were built as tankers (A.A. Daugherty - ON 220746; and P.J. Reilly - ON 220969) in 1920 for the National Oil Transportation Company of Port Arthur, Texas and one as a barge (W. E. Ebsen - ON 219455).[1][4]
