Construction and Armament
The Island War Bark Mason was built in 1812 at the Boston Navy Yard. It was a three-masted, square-rigged vessel with a displacement of 300 tons. It was armed with 18 12-pounder guns and 2 6-pounder guns. The Mason was a fast and maneuverable vessel, and it was well-suited for the shallow waters of the Pacific coast.
The Mason was one of the first warships to be built with a copper-sheathed hull. This made the hull more resistant to rot and marine growth, and it allowed the Mason to sail faster than other vessels of its time.
Role in the War of 1812
The Island War Bark Mason played a vital role in the War of 1812. It was part of the Pacific Squadron, which was responsible for protecting the American coast from British attack. The Mason participated in several important battles, including the Battle of Lake Erie and the Battle of New Orleans.
At the Battle of Lake Erie, the Mason was one of the most heavily armed vessels in the American fleet. It played a key role in the American victory, which secured control of the Great Lakes for the United States.
At the Battle of New Orleans, the Mason was part of the American fleet that defended the city from British attack. The Mason's guns helped to drive back the British forces, and they contributed to the American victory.
Fate After the War
After the War of 1812, the Island War Bark Mason was sold out of the Navy. It was used as a merchant vessel for several years, and it was eventually broken up in 1832.
The Island War Bark Mason was a significant vessel in the history of the United States Navy. It was the first warship to be built on the Pacific coast, and it played a vital role in the War of 1812. The Mason's unique design and armament made it a formidable opponent, and it helped to secure American victory in several important battles.
The Mason's story is a reminder of the important role that the Navy has played in protecting the United States. It is also a reminder of the courage and sacrifice of the men who served on board our warships.
