Enterprise was a private wooden motorboat owned by Elsie C. Stewart[note 1] purchased by the United States Navy for $24,101 for non-commissioned service as a Section Patrol craft with the assigned number 790 in the 2nd Naval District during the period of United States participation in World War I.[1][2][3][note 2]

Footnotes

  1. ^ "Ships' Data U.S. Naval Vessels has "E. C. Steward" but lacking first name. Preference given to reference with full name.
  2. ^ Only commissioned vessels are given the United States Ship (USS) prefix, thus "USS Enterprise" for this motorboat is incorrect.
