The Currituck class seaplane tenders were four ships built for the United States Navy during World War II. The role of a seaplane tender was to provide base facilities for squadrons of seaplanes in a similar way that an aircraft carrier does for its squadrons. The four ships of the class were: * USS Currituck (AV-7) * USS Norton Sound (AV-11) * USS Pine Island (AV-12) * USS Salisbury Sound (AV-13) The ships were named for features on the United States coast.
