No, there was a second of its kind (but not of the same class).

Likely not, though I'm not entirely sure.


I think it would have been mentioned if the hull had been made of wood, but none of the sources I looked at says anything about it. If the hull had been made of wood it would very likely have been one of the largest wooden-hulled ships ever, so I'd say it wasn't wooden hulled.

Additional clarification: it strongly resembles a typical warship of WWII, only if you look closer you'll notice differences. Being unarmed is just one of them.

Wasn't USS Oglala sunk at Pearl Harbor? It's not USS Oglala.


Another hint: you have mentioned a lot of ship types already, but you have so far missed a very important one.
