CG-113 was a wooden-hulled patrol vessel in commission in the fleet of the United States Coast Guard.
History She was laid down at the Camden, New Jersey shipyard of Mathis Yacht Building Company, one of 203 "Six-Bitters" ordered by the United States Coast Guard. She was designed for long-range picket and patrol duty during Prohibition for postings 20 to 30 miles from shore. The date of her launching and completion is uncertain although the class design was finalized in April 1924 and all of the Six-Bitters were commissioned by 1925. She was commissioned in 1924/1925 as CG-113. On 20 July 1928, she was sunk after being hit amidships by the passenger steamship SS Culberson in heavy fog off Cape May; two of her seven crewman were killed.Flynn states July 23, 1928 and the Coast Guard lists July 25, 1928
