USS Vencedor, a 90 foot long section patrol vessel, was built in 1909 at Neponset, Massachusetts, as the motor pleasure boat Tekla. Later renamed Vencedor, she was leased to the Navy in June 1917 and placed in commission in late August of that year. She served on harbor patrol, dispatch and target towing duties in the New York City area for the remainder of World War I and for a few months following the 11 November 1918 Armistice. USS Vencedor was decommissioned in late February 1919 and returned to her owner.
