USS Sibyl (1863)
USS ''Sibyl'' (1863) was a wooden-hull steamer outfitted with heavy guns, purchased by the Union Navy during the American Civil War.
''Sibyl'' was used by the Union Navy primarily as a dispatch boat in the blockade of ports and waterways of the Confederate States of America. She carried messages (dispatches) between ships and shore; but, with her heavy guns, she was also prepared to act as a gunboat if the need presented itself.
