USS SC-151, prior to July 1920 known as USS Submarine Chaser No. 151 or USS S.C. 151, was an SC-1-class submarine chaser built for the United States Navy during World War I. She operated as part of the Otranto Barrage during the war.

After World War I, the former SC-151 became the fishing boat Usona. She returned to U.S. Navy service during World War II as the yard patrol boat USS YP-191. After World War II, she again became a fishing boat, named Sea Queen III.
