Anemone IV was built as a private ketch-rigged motor schooner of the same name in 1899 by Camper & Nicholson at Gosport, Maine. On 3 October 1917, the U.S. Navy acquired her at Fort Townsend, Washington, under a free lease from her owner, E. A. Sims, for use as a section patrol boat during World War I. She apparently was never commissioned, but she saw active non-commissioned service as USS Anemone IV (SP-1290). The Navy placed SP-1290 out of service on 3 March 1919. She was stricken from the Navy List and simultaneously returned to Sims on 4 March 1919.
