Yes - they are all based on the North Sands design. The Americans went to welded construction, and changed the superstructure, but they are all very similar.

Very nice build. Almost built one too a few years ago.
From my research the hull is essentially a rivitted Liberty ship, but with more a more typical British superstructure and holds layout. Power was the steam reciprocating layout as used in the Liberty. ▲
