Project history: Former USN 105ft-type submarine chasers. They were transferred to Cuba in November, 1918.
Modernizations: None.
Naval service: By Spring of 1933 because of extreme decay their major repair in Havana on "Casa Blanca" was planed. Apparently, they were built anew with maximum usage of old gears, armament and machinery. They all were commissioned again before WWII.
