History
She was laid down at the Newport News, Virginia shipyard of the Southern Shipyard Corporation, one of 203 "Six-Bitters" ordered by the United States Coast Guard. She was designed for long-range picket and patrol duty during Prohibition for postings 20 to 30 miles from shore. The date of her launching and completion is uncertain although the class design was finalized in April 1924 and all of the Six-Bitters were commissioned by 1925. She was commissioned in 1925 as CG-182. In 1934, she was transferred to the United States Navy and designated as a Yard Patrol Craft (YP). In December 1943, she was scrapped.
