USC&GS Fathomer (1904)
The second USC&GS ''Fathomer'' was a steamer that served as a survey ship in the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey from 1905 to 1942.
==Construction and acquisition==
''Fathomer'' was built by the Hong Kong and Whampoa Dock Company at Hong Kong in 1904 under the supervision of C. C. Yates for the Survey. On 10 December 1904 she underwent trials in Hong Kong witnessed by a special board composed of C&GS personnel and others acting for the Coast and Geodetic Survey, passing her speed trial at 10.5 knots—0.5 knots more than required. The board recommended acceptance after certain changes and additions by the contractor. The ship was delivered by the contractor in Manila Bay on 19 January 1905 and was immediately placed in commission with the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey.〔The NOAA reference mentions "ORCHID , Coast Guard lighthouse tender" that appears erroneous as made very clear in the 1905 Annual Report showing construction under supervision of C&GS with a special C&GS party to witness trials in Hong Kong followed by delivery to and commissioning by C&GS in Manila 19 January 1905. (Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships ) has an entry for a ship of that name built in 1908 that was transferred to the Philippines in 1945.〕
