Maysie, a 92-foot motor boat, was built in 1899 at Astoria, Long Island, New York, for use as a yacht. During her years as a pleasure craft she was also named Verano and Laurena. She was acquired by the Navy in 1917, converted to a patrol vessel and placed in commission as USS Maysie (SP-930) in February 1918. Following World War I service in the New York City area, she was decommissioned and returned to her owner in December 1918.
This page features our only views of the motor boat Maysie, which was USS Maysie (SP-930) during 1918.
