I don't know what information you are seeking, but the report of the official U.S. Coast Guard inquiry into the loss of V.A. FOGG (formerly FOUR LAKES) is at www.uscg.mil/hq/cg5/cg545/docs/boards/vafog.pdf. The report is 105 pages long and lists by name some, but not all, of the casualties. The names of other casualties have been blacked out; your father's name does not appear.
At this webpage, http://www.officialcoldcaseinvestigations.com/showthread.php?t=10958, which discusses the loss of V.A. FOGG, your father's name appears twice, apparently copied from newspaper accounts of the loss. His name also appears at http://texashistory.unt.edu/ark:/67531/metapth146001/m1/525/, a resolution of the Texas Senate about the loss of V.A. FOGG.
