Sandoval (Gunboat, 1895-1898)

Sandoval, a 106-ton gunboat, was launched at Clydebank, Scotland, in September 1895. Stationed in Cuba during the Spanish-American War, she was captured at Santiago on 17 July 1898. From then until 1919, the U.S. Navy employed her as USS Sandoval. She was a private yacht from 1919 to 1924.

This page features a photograph of Sandoval after she became a U.S. Navy ship.
