All things dealing with the Civil War Navies and actions along the coasts and rivers and against forts. Emphasis will be placed on Fort Fisher and all operations around Wilmington, NC. And, of course, the Blockade and Running the Blockade.

Capture of the Revere-- Part 5: Too Many Coincidences To Believe Otherwise.
So, let's see, we have an English schooner in both instances. And, it was based in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia.
Could this be the same ship captured twice? And both times in the process of making a run through the blockade and both times off the coast of North Carolina.
Did it get captured in 1861 and sold in prize court and then became a blockade runner again?
I'd say so.
Highly Probable.
