Cyane (YFB-4, ex-USS Gwin, Torpedo Boat # 16)
Ship's bow undergoing repairs at about the beginning of January
1922, after having accidently rammed the stone sea wall while
coming into the Torpedo Station at Newport, Rhode Island. Cyane
was repaired by Navy personnel by early March 1922 and returned
to service.
Note that she still wears her torpedo boat bow number ("16"),
despite having been converted to a ferry several years previously.
The original print is in National Archives Record Group 19, Entry
105, Box 192, File O-YFB4.
