On 1 January 1929 she was transferred to Miami, Florida. Vidette's further career and fate are unclear. The United States Coast Guard Historian's Office states that she was sold on 28 July 1922, but clearly she remained in Coast Guard service through at least 1929. She probably was sold sometime in the 1930s.
