- Locator
- SC-497 Class Characteristics; Class Grouping
- Finding type
- historical_record
- Finding
- NHHC's SC-497 class grouping includes hull numbers 628–775, placing SC-775 within the SC-497 class. The class characteristics list diesel engines and two screws; these are class-level characteristics, not a hull-specific machinery record.

[4]Naval History and Heritage Command, Hampton Roads Naval Museum, The Daybook, Vol. 7, Issue 2, review of Splinter Fleet: The Wooden Subchasers of World War II [museum_official]
- Locator
- Book review, opening paragraph
- Finding type
- historical_record
- Finding
- The official Navy museum's overview describes the World War II submarine-chaser program as including wooden-hull SCs and larger steel-hull PCs. Read with NHHC's class grouping, this is class/type background for SC-775, not direct documentation of this hull's construction material.

- Limitations
- Class/type context only. The museum overview does not name SC-775 or SC-497 specifically; it cannot independently establish this hull's material and has no asbestos finding. The source appeared in official NHHC search results, but direct PDF retrieval returned an error during this session.

[5]NHHC, DANFS, Zeus (ARB-4), service narrative [nhhc_danfs]

- September 1944 service narrative, paragraph beginning 'During September'
- Finding type
- historical_record
- Finding
- NHHC's history of Zeus states that during September 1944 Zeus performed work on vessels including the 110-foot submarine chasers SC-775 and SC-670. This documents SC-775 as a customer of Zeus during that month.

- The source does not specify the repair performed, its location beyond Zeus's stated anchorage context, or any asbestos-related work or material. Direct NHHC page retrieval returned a timeout during this session; the relevant passage was returned in NHHC-indexed search results on 2026-10-03.

- Finding
- Flynn's Coast Guard craft table identifies WAVR 438 as Air Martin, ex-SC-775, records 27 March 1946, and lists sale on 19 January 1948. The record supports the post-Navy Air Martin identity and those listed Coast Guard dates.

- Limitations
- This is a bounded negative finding from the sources and searches listed in the batch report, not proof that no record exists. The CourtListener litigation sweep could not be completed because the authenticated helper repeatedly instructed a fleet pacing stand-down; litigation is unresolved and this finding must not be read as a negative litigation result. No class- or era-based asbestos inference is made.
