USS Wandank (ATA-204)
The second USS ''Wandank'' (ATA-204), originally USS ''ATA-204'', was a United States Navy auxiliary ocean tug in commission from 1945 to 1947 and again from 1952 to 1971. The ship is possibly best known for supporting scientific operations in the Marianas, in particular serving as communication relay and support ship for the bathyscaphe ''Trieste'' in Project Nekton; she towed the bathyscaphe some 260 nautical miles (482 kilometers) from Guam to the vicinity of the Challenger Deep, where, on 23 January 1960, ''Trieste'' descended to a record 37,000 feet (11,278 meters).
==Construction and commissioning==
Originally projected as steel-hulled rescue tug USS ''ATR—131'', ''Wandank'' was laid down as USS ''ATA-204'' on 25 September 1944 at Port Arthur, Texas, by the Gulfport Boiler and Welding Works. She was launched on 9 November 1944 and commissioned on 18 January 1945 with Lieutenant, junior grade, Vernon L. Ryan, USNR, in command. She was 143 ft in length and displaced 835 tons.
