USS Cigarette (SP-1234) was a patrol vessel that served in the United States Navy from 1917 to 1919. Cigarette was built as a fast, private steam yacht of the same name in 1905 by George Lawley & Son at Neponset, Massachusetts, for C. A. Wood of Cambridge, Massachusetts. She appears to have entered U.S. Navy service by as early as mid-June 1917, but on 17 September 1917, the Navy officially purchased her from her owner for use as a patrol boat during World War I. She was commissioned as USS Cigarette (SP-1234) on 19 September 1917 with Chief Boatswain J. A. Conway in command.
