USS Island Belle
From Warlike
USS Island Belle was a large tugboat acquired by the Union Navy during the American Civil War. Although carrying relatively heavy weaponry, she was used for unassuming tasks, such as carrying dispatches and providing surveillance. When she ran aground in unfriendly waters, she was burned to prevent her falling into the hands of the Confederate forces.
