Abstract:
Mayflower functioned as a very active vessel in American history. The ship served as Presidential yacht, engaged in the Spanish-American War, and saw service once again in World War II. Mayflower was a familiar sight in Wilmington because it had been moved for repairs in 1933. It wouldn't be refitted until World War II when the Coast Guard renamed it Butte and outfitted it as a man-of-war.
