I know FDR Presidential yacht was called the USS Potomac. What is the Sequoia?
It was the Presidential yacht before the USS Potomac. Appears Herbert Hoover is the first to designate it as such and FDR used it until it was deemed not secure enough.
Sequoia was not "officially" designated the Presidential yacht until FDR. During the Hoover administration, Sequoia was owned by the Commerce Department and was officially used for inspection duties; President Hoover just borrowed her from time to time.
