Summary
Conservation Department patrol No. 1 was described in June 1945 as a 75-foot diesel-powered craft used for scheduled fish-net inspection trips from Charlevoix toward the Beaver Islands. The feature says it was commanded by Charles J. Allers.[^patrol1945]
Evidence and limits
The held feature does not provide a vessel name beyond “patrol No. 1,” official number, builder, ownership, registration, home port, or later service history. The vessel is therefore kept as a source-qualified craft record, not matched to a modern or separately named patrol boat.
Open questions
- What agency and vessel register identify Patrol No. 1?
- Was the craft used only for fish-net inspection, or did it have broader conservation duties?
