''Massachusetts II'' was a small sloop operated by the Revenue-Marine used in the collection of customs duties. She was completed in June 1793 and replaced , one of the first ten cutters of the Revenue-Marine, when it was determined that the older ship was too large and slow to perform her assigned tasks.〔 ''Massachusetts II'' was constructed by Adna Bates of Cohasset, Massachusetts for a cost of 1,600.〔 Her area of operation was along the Massachusetts coast as a smaller less expensive replacement to the original ''Massachusetts''. When the original ''Massachusetts'' was sold at auction, the second and third mates were discharged and ''Massachusetts II'' was manned by two officers and four crewmen.〔 ''Massachusetts II'' was sold in June 1804 for 900.〔 ==Notes== ;Footnotes ;Citations ;References used * * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「USRC Massachusetts II (1793)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
