USS Island Belle (1861)

USS ''Island Belle'' (1861) 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 scrapped to prevent her falling into the hands of the Confederate forces.
==Assigned to the Potomac River Flotilla==
''Island Belle'' was purchased at New York City from Luther Adams on 4 September 1861. She fitted out at Washington Navy Yard and sailed on 17 September to join the Potomac Flotilla. She served in the Potomac as a tug and a dispatch boat occasionally exchanging fire with batteries and riflemen on the Virginia shore. She sailed to Hampton Roads, Virginia on 19 March 1862, escorting transports carrying troops to Fort Monroe in preparation for the Peninsular campaign against Richmond, Virginia. She returned to Washington, D.C., as soon as the soldiers were disembarked and again got underway for Hampton Roads escorting a second division of transports on 23 March.
''Island Belle'' devoted most of April and May to reconnaissance work, searching the Virginia rivers between Washington and Richmond for information valuable to either the Army or the Navy.
