USS Rutoma (SP-78)
USS ''Rutoma'' (SP-78) was an armed motorboat that served in the United States Navy as a patrol vessel from 1917 to 1919.
''Rutoma'' was built as the private motorboat ''Manchonac'' in 1910 by the Seabury Company at Morris Heights, New York. She had been renamed ''Rutoma'' by the time the U.S. Navy purchased her from her owner, Graham T. Thompson of New Haven, Connecticut, on 18 April 1917 for World War I service as a patrol boat. She was commissioned on 26 April 1917 as USS ''Rutoma'' (SP-78) with Ensign George D. Atwood, USNRF, in command.
''Rutoma'' patrolled in the 3rd Naval District during 1917 and 1918, operating in Long Island Sound and eastward to New Haven. Transferred to New York City at the end of the war, ''Rutoma'' was rammed and sunk on 21 February 1919〔Per the U.S. Naval Historical Center Selected Library of Online Images (at http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/sh-usn/usnsh-r/sp78.htm). The statement in the ''Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships'' (at http://www.history.navy.mil/danfs/r10/rutoma.htm) that she sank on 21 February 1918 clearly is a typographical error, as her sinking clearly occurred after World War I ended on 11 November 1918.〕 by the tug SS ''John L. Lewis'' in the East River off Pier No. 6 in New York City.
''Rutoma'' was raised on 22 February 1919 by salvage crews from the salvage tug USS ''Resolute'' (SP-1309). She subsequently was sold on 16 September 1919 to Reinhard Hall of Brooklyn, New York, and returned to civilian use, remaining on mercantile registers into the 1930s.
