One of a sequence YC-700 - YC-728 built by Dravo, all identical.

Delaware also lists a 95' barge at this location; I think that is an error.

Troop Carrier

Specs:
Landing Craft?
Sunk:
during World War II ?
Depth:
20 ft

This wreck is described only as a "Troop Carrier" from World War II. Given its location, I would guess that what is meant by this is most likely a landing craft; probably lost in an accident during an amphibious training exercise by the Army.
