Default LIBERTY CARGO at Chicago Port? (Google earth!!)

I'm using Google Earth (former user of NASA's World Wind).
Am I seeing a Liberty Cargo in Chicago Port, CA, at the coordinates of....
N 38 03 39 0
W 122 06 42 08? For that sake, there may be Liberty ships all over the place, but I just found this one boat to be a tad different looking than the other. Smaller, in a way. Most of the others seem to have four sets of masts, or whatever you call the devices, while the boat at the coordinates only have three masts, like the Liberty does.

There are LOTS of treats in Chicago Port, I tell ye! Even a carrier, and a battleship! Too bad they're just left there to rust.

There is a Victory ship in Tampa, and three in Cali along with a Liberty Ship.
