While operating off Florida waters, it took part in operations against Jacksonville and St. Marks. It was overhauled in Boston in 1864.
The Mahaska operated off Florida for the remaining years of the war. Unlike so many other U.S. warships after the war, it continued in service for another three years until decommissioned September 1868 and sold in November. After that, it became the merchant vessel Jeannette.
