Subsequent Civilian Maritime Career

In merchant service, the former Bat operated between ports on the U.S. East Coast—especially New York City and Boston, Massachusetts—and New Orleans, Louisiana. In 1871, she was sold to a Canadian owner, renamed Miramichi and subsequently operated between ports on the St. Lawrence River and in the Gulf of Newfoundland. In 1902, the ship was acquired by the Richelieu and Ontario Steam Navigation Co.; and, soon thereafter, she was scrapped.
