Hoqua was built as a civilian yacht in 1914 by Charles Seabury at Morris Heights in the Bronx, New York. The U.S. Navy acquired her from her owner, Robert M. Curtis of Chicago, Illinois, in June 1917 for use as a patrol vessel during World War I. She was commissioned at Brooklyn, New York, on 27 July 1917 as USS Hoqua (SP-142) with Chief Boatswain H. F. Dellyse, USNRF, in command. Hoqua was assigned to the 3rd Naval District, and performed general harbor duties at Brooklyn until 27 March 1918, when she arrived at New Haven, Connecticut, for duty. She served there as an inshore patrol vessel and as an escort for submarines in and around New Haven harbor for the remainder of the war.
