USS Gemini (PHM-6) was the final ship of her class of hydrofoils operated by the U.S. Navy. She was named for the constellation.

Pegasus class vessels were designed for high speed and mobility, and carried an armament powerful for its size, consisting of Harpoon anti-ship missiles and a 76 mm cannon.

USS Gemini was converted into a yacht after decommissioning, but was later sold for scrap.
