USS ''Wenonah'' (SP-165/PY-11) was a yacht acquired by the U.S. Navy during World War I. She was configured by the Navy as an armed patrol craft and was assigned to protect North Atlantic Ocean ships from German submarines. Post-war she was transferred to the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey where she acquired the name USC&GS ''Wenonah''. When returned to the Navy, the ship was designated USS ''Wenonah'' (PY-11) and remained mostly idle until sold in 1929. == Constructed in Massachusetts ==
The first ship to be so named by the U.S. Navy, ''Wenonah'' (SP-165) -- a steam yacht built in 1915 at Neponset, Massachusetts, by George Lawley & Sons—was acquired by the Navy from Mr. Walter G. Ladd on 8 June 1917; converted for naval service; and commissioned on 22 October 1917, Lt. Henry G. Fuller, NNV, temporarily in command.
