Conquest

The M/V Conquest is a 49' former U.S. Navy MK IV Utility Boat. Thanks to Joe Butcher, formerly on the U.S.S. Samuel L. Gompers (AD37) our boat has been identified as having served aboard the Gompers. Additional information from George Schneider confirms that she was built on Terminal Island in Long Beach by Harbor Boatbuilding Co. in 1965 and assigned to the Gompers in 1967. She retired from service in 1989. She was soon acquired by the Sea Scouts in Stockton, CA but work was later abandoned and she sat idle at the Stockton Sea Base until we found her. She was launched in August of 2004 and should be complete by the summer of 2006.
