About USS Quileute

USS Quileute (YTB–540), later YTM-540, was a United States Navy harbor tug in service from 1945 to ca. 1974. Quileute was laid down 17 February 1945 by the Consolidated Shipbuilding Corporation at Morris Heights, the Bronx, New York, and launched on 14 May 1945. She was placed in service on 16 October 1945 with the 3rd Naval District at New York City as the large harbor tug USS Quileute (YTB-540).
