USCGC Cuyahoga (WIX-157)
USCGC ''Cuyahoga'' (WIX-157) was an built in 1927 which saw action in World War II. ''Cuyahoga'' sank after a night-time collision in the Chesapeake Bay while on patrol in 1978. She was later raised and re-sunk as an artificial reef off the Virginia coast and is now a popular recreational dive site.
==Class History==
The ''Active''-class was one of the most useful and long lasting in the service. Thirty-three ships were built with sixteen cutters still in use in the 1960s. The last to be decommissioned was in 1970; the last in service was ''Cuyahoga'', sunk in 1978. They were designed for the outer line of patrol during prohibition, trailing mother ships. They gained a reputation for durability only enhanced by their re-engining in the late 1930s; their original 6-cylinder diesels were replaced by significantly more powerful 8-cylinder GE 268-A engines, each with that used the original engine beds and gave the vessels 3 additional knots. All served in World War II, however, and , were lost in the Great Atlantic Hurricane in 1944. Ten were refitted as buoy tenders during World
War II and reverted to patrol work afterward.〔〔
