The ''Tallapoosa''-class cutters, the ''Tallapoosa'' and ''Ossipee'', were designed for long cruises. Their hulls were reinforced for light ice-breaking. During World War II, the ''Ossipee'' was actually classified as a river gunboat (WPR) while the ''Tallapoosa'' was classified as a patrol gunboat (WPG). ==References== *(''Ossipee'' (1915) ), US Coast Guard website. *Canney, Donald L.
