Description: Photo #: S-511-26 Submarine Rescue Vessel (A.S.R.) - Design Study B Preliminary design plan prepared for the General Board during the process that produced the Chanticleer (ASR-7) class. This plan, dated 17 October 1940, depicts a relatively large, 1750-ton (light displacement) 300-foot (between perpendiculars), design that appears to be based on that of the Barnegat (AVP-10) class small seaplane tenders. Scale of the original drawings is 1/16 = 1'. The original plan is in the 1939-1944 Spring Styles Book held by the Naval History and Heritage Command.
