Sykes and Burton are basicly sisters. The Burton is slighty longer and the lines of the stern below the water line were slightly altered for the Burton. Humphrey, Sherwin and Beeghly are also basicly sisters. All the same OAD when launched, the Humphrey was never legthened. Their were slight differences between them such as the Humphrey's hatch arrangement and the Beeghly coming out as a oil burner and a few other things. The Armco is an AAA. The AAA hulls were all the same, the cabins varied a bit depending on the owner's needs. As the Armco was to be Columbia's new flagship when built her cabins were uprated compaired to the other Columbia AAA, the Reserve. the AAAs are/were Arthur M. Anderson, Cason J. Calloway, Phillip R. Clarke, Reserve, William Clay Ford, Kaye E. Barker and J.L. Mauthe.
