Snow Squall

1864 March 1       Got ashore in the Straits of Le Maire and had to put into Port Stanley      leaking badly. After her cargo had been discharged it was found that      it was impossible to repair her. She was condemned in July and sold.  The preserved 35 feet bow section was moved from the Spring Point Museum, South Portland, ME, USA, to the Maine Maritime Museum, Bath, MA, in 1995.   Updated 1996-04-05 by Lars_Bruzelius@udac.uu.se
