Chilean minelayer Colo Colo (1917)

In 1919 the Chilean Government bought 4 incompleted ships captured by Finland on slipways in 1918 after Russia's withdrawal from World War I in 1917. The ships Chibis, Kulik, Strizh and Bekas were in Helsinki under construction for the Russian Empire.

The ships were renamed Colo Colo, Elicura, Leucotón and Orompello, completed and in 1920 passed to England to receive minelaying equipment on Samuel White Shipyard.

They arrived to Chile on 26 October 1920.

During the Chilean naval mutiny of 1931 the Colo Colo (mutineers) chased the submarine Rucumilla (government) and forced it to enter to the Biobio River.

She was sold in 1930 and renamed Toqui. She sunk on 25 February 1944 off Huasco.
