USS Memorable

USS Memorable (AMc-89) was an Accentor-class coastal minesweeper acquired by the U.S. Navy for the dangerous task of removing mines from minefields laid in the water to prevent ships from passing.

Memorable was laid down by Fulton Shipyard, Antioch, California, 31 July 1941; launched 24 December 1941; sponsored by Mrs. Mary Shor; and placed in service 9 March 1942.

Throughout World War II she ensured the safe passage of shipping in and out of Los Angeles Harbor.

Struck from the Naval Register 3 January 1946, she was delivered to War Shipping Administration (WSA) 17 September 1948 and was subsequently sold.
