  • USS Apache (SP-729) was the first to be delivered of eight motor boats built by Herreshoff Manufacturing Company at Bristol, Rhode Island ordered and financed by members of the Eastern Yacht Club of Marblehead, Massachusetts. The boats were designed by and Nathanael Greene Herreshoff with the intention that the boats be used by the Navy as patrol craft and built with Navy approval of the design. Apache, as were the other boats, bore names under construction chosen by the owners and were then given the Section Patrol numbers on Navy acceptance and activation. The names were dropped after a period and all the boats then bore only the S.P. numbers. Apache was financed and ordered by Robert F. Herrick, a Harvard graduate and also Harvard's rowing coach, who had previously sold his smaller Gypsy to the Navy. After acceptance by the Navy the boat served at Boston in the 1st Naval District Section Patrol as a patrol and dispatch boat. The boat, along with several of the other Herreshoff/Eastern Yacht Club boats, were designated for shipment to France but the order was apparently cancelled due to the end of the war. After the war the boat was sent south to Florida finally in Key West where the boat was decommissioned and transferred to the United States Coast Guard on 22 November 1919 and on 16 December renamed Arrow. The boat was towed to Tampa where it was reclassified to harbor launch and given the designation AB-2 without a name. The launch was found unfit for service and turned over to the United States Shipping Board for disposal 18 March 1925. (en)
