USS Maud (SP-1009) was a United States Navy patrol vessel in commission from 1917 to 1919.
Maud was built as a private wooden motorboat of the same name. She was remodeled in 1913.
On 15 June 1917, the U.S. Navy acquired Maud under a free lease from her owner, W. H. Pattison, for use as a section patrol boat during World War I. She was commissioned the same day as USS Maud (SP-1009).
Assigned to the 5th Naval District, Maud operated in the Norfolk, Virginia, area for the rest of World War I. In addition to carrying out patrol duties, she served as a dispatch boat and on special services duties for the Commandant, 5th Naval District.
Maud was returned to Pattison on 7 January 1919.
