Alabama, a 69-foot motor boat, was built at South Boston, Massachusetts, in 1906 for use as a pleasure craft. In July 1917 she was enrolled in the Naval Coast Defense Reserve, with the registry number SP-1052, and ordered to be taken over for World War I U.S. Navy service. However, it appears that this action was not carried out and she remained in civilian hands.
