A-1 was built in 1911 by Sillit Buchanan. Early in the war, she was inspected for possible naval service. Her takeover by the Navy from F. E. Wright of San Pedro, California was ordered on 6 October 1917. The vessel was placed in service on 30 December 1917, and she operated in waters of southern California through the end of hostilities. Her logs end on 9 December 1918 and, apparently, no record of her subsequent fate has survived. See USS A-1 for other ships with this name. A-1 A-1
