Amanda Moore (American Tug, 1900).
May have seen U.S. Navy service in 1918-1919

Amanda Moore, a 121 gross ton tug built in 1900, was examined for possible U.S. Navy acquisition by the Fifth Naval District at the beginning April 1918. Though evaluated as "unsuitable for Naval use", she appears to have been taken over, as her data card states that she was returned to her owner in May 1919. Beyond that, there is no record of Amanda Moore's Navy service.

This page features the only view we have concerning the tug Amanda Moore, which may have seen U.S. Navy service in 1918-1919.
