USS Sayonara II, a 74-foot patrol boat, was built in 1916 at Neponset, Massachusetts, as a pleasure craft with the same name. Leased by the Navy for a dollar a month in April 1917, she entered service in May of that year. Sayonara II was employed by the First Naval District to patrol New England coastal waters during and immediately after World War I. She was returned to her owner in March 1919.

Note: The Ships' Histories Branch of the Naval Historical
Center holds one other photograph of Sayonara II, taken
circa 1917-1919. The view was taken from off the boat's port
quarter, while she was off the end of a pier, with other vessels
nearby. She is seen relatively faintly and distantly (taking
up only about a quarter of the width of the original image). |
