Her keel was laid on 25 July 1940. Launched on 31 December 1940, she was christened Hoga(YT-146). Placed in service at Norfolk, Virginia on 22 May 1941, Hoga was assigned to the 14th Naval District at Pearl Harbor. She made the trip there by way of the Panama Canal, San Diego, and San Pedro.[3] At Pearl Harbor, she was berthed at the Yard Craft Dock and worked moving cargo lighters and assisting ships in and out of berths. Like other YTs, she carried firefighting equipment.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAfter only six months in service, the HOGA was put to a far greater test than had been expected, when Pearl Harbor was attacked on 7 December 1941. The HOGA fought without break for 48 hours, extinguishing fires, tugging bombed warships and rescuing seamen. Today the HOGA is the only vessel still in existence from the time of the Japanese attack.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKit Specifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHull -Wood hull Plank-on-Frame.\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLaser Cut Parts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eScale - 1\/50\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLength - 24.4\" inch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWidth -  6.1\" inch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHeight - 12.2\" inch\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKit Includes:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003ePlan with detailed building instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eLaser cut wood hull\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWood Deck\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eStern tubes with propellers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eAll fittings included (e.g. position lights, anchors, life-belt, etc.)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.billingboats.com\/image\/catalog\/productdocs\/428362_Instructions.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eDowload Instructions\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eClick \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/photos.app.goo.gl\/SNHuo27C7bJUePEZ6\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e for the Photo Build Log\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-variant-numeric: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-weight: 400; font-stretch: inherit; line-height: inherit; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; min-height: 1px; color: rgb(119, 119, 119); background-color: rgb(245, 247, 251);\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/saM2LZresmw?si=261-V3dTZRSq5vuI\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Billing Boats","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42957605175398,"sku":"BBoats01-00-0708","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0653\/3274\/0198\/files\/31f43b9ada06826d331346d295d68adc_w500_h500_92d58a4f-dc25-465c-86c9-b22f4793c2dc.jpg?v=1759421608","url":"https:\/\/www.modelexpo-online.pro\/products\/billing-boats-1-50-hoga-pearl-harbor-tugboat-plank-on-bulkhead","provider":"Model Expo Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
