records reveal that, by 1 January 1923, her permanent duty station and base of operations was Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. On 6 November of that year, Advance was renamed AB-1. On 27 May 1924, the motorboat suffered a gasoline explosion, burned, and sank at Sault Ste. Marie. Raised and repaired, she returned to active service by 20 August 1924. Four days later, she departed Sault Ste. Marie and proceeded to Chicago, 111. AB-1 spent the next 38 months based at Chicago and finally headed back to Sault Ste. Marie on 15 October 1927. She apparently passed the remainder of her Coast Guard career there. Her name disappeared from the Coast Guard register in 1940.<ref>Dictionary of American Naval Fighting Ships [http://www.history.navy.mil/danfs/a3/advance-iii.htm]</ref>
