USS Agamenticus (1863)
USS Agamenticus was a Miantonomoh-class monitor of the United States Navy, named after Mount Agamenticus in York County, Maine. The twin-screw, double-turreted ironclad monitor was laid down sometime in 1862 at Portsmouth Navy Yard in Kittery, Maine and launched on 19 March 1863. Since operational experience with the monitors during the American Civil War had shown the necessity for better ship-control and navigational facilities, Agamenticus underwent alterations in the first few months of 1864, notably the addition of a "hurricane deck" that extended between the two turrets and over the machinery spaces amidships.
