From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The United States Lighthouse Tender Marigold was a lighthouse tender which served on the Great Lakes. She was launched in 1890 and delivered to the depot in Detroit early in 1891. The tender spent an unremarkable career in service, never needing a major retrofit and being drydocked only for a few minor repairs. She was decommissioned in 1945 and sold into private service in 1946, and spent her last years, having been extensively rebuilt, operating as a dredge under the name Miss Mudhen II. She was stripped and her hull was scrapped in Lake Huron sometime in the 1960's.
