The second USS Ripple (ID-2439) was a United States Navy trawler which served as a minesweeper and was in commission from 1918 to 1919.
Ripple was built as a civilian steel-hulled fishing trawler by the Fore River Shipbuilding Company at Quincy, Massachusetts, for the Bay State Fishing Company of Boston, Massachusetts, and was launched on 20 November 1910.
In 1917, the Russian Empire purchased Ripple and the trawlers Foam and Spray from Bay State Fishing, intending to place them in Imperial Russian Navy service during World War I.
2491, placed under the control of the Commandant, 3rd Naval District, and, reverting to her commercial name, was commissioned at Tebo's Yacht Basin in New York City on 6 August 1918 as USS Ripple (ID-2491).
That government having been deposed in 1917, she was sold locally, and operated as a commercial fishing trawler out of Boston until being scrapped in 1949.
