'''Ahdeek'''—a single-screw wooden-hulled motorboat built in 1916 for H. V. Schieren, at Morris Heights, [[New York]], by the Charles L. Seabury and Gas Engine and Power Co.—was inspected in the 3d Naval District on 7 April 1918 for possible use as an "aeronautic patrol" boat. Ordered taken over on 12 June 1918 and assigned the identification number SP-2589, Ahdeek did not again appear in extant records until 23 June 1919 when a dispatch directed the Commandant, 3d Naval District, to ship her and Eslelle (SP-747) to the Culver Naval School, Culver, Ind. The next mention of her came with notice of her name's being struck from the Navy list on 25 October 1933.<ref>Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships [http://www.history.navy.mil/danfs/a4/ahdeek.htm]</ref>
