==San Francisco trade and transport of whaling products==
''Syren'' sailed in the San Francisco trade from Boston and New York from 1851 to 1856, making five passages. She then made a voyage from Boston and Calcutta, and served in the Boston - Honolulu - New Bedford trade until 1861. She then made four more passages in the San Francisco trade.
In 1866, ''Syren'' returned to the Boston - Honolulu - New Bedford run, a route she sailed for ten more years. In 1877, ''Syren'' began to voyage to Alaska and the Arctic to transport whale oil and the catch of whalers; she also transported coal to the north, and a load of spars from Seattle to Bath, ME.〔
In ''All About Hawaii'', written in 1920, there appears the following note about ''Syren'':
Dec. 23, 1858, ship ''Syren'', 1064 tons, Green master, 96 days from Boston via Rio Janeiro, with cargo for this market. Feb. 23, 1860, she is back with another eastern cargo, reporting a trip of 114 days. Was the crack ship of the Brewer line of Boston packets several years. In 1868 she made the run in 105 days, and in 1872 it was 109. She also figured in the San Francisco-China trade later, and was finally condemned at Rio, July, 1888.〔
