Bie & Schiott, a 64-foot motor boat, was built in 1918. Purchased from her Norfolk, Virginia, owner soon after completion, she was placed in commission as USS Bie & Schiott (ID # 2871) in mid-March 1918. Assigned to the Fifth Naval District, she was employed on transportation duties for the next several years. In 1920 she was classified as a district patrol vessel and became YP-2871. The craft was sold in April 1922.
