Subsequent ActionsMonitor remained in the Hampton Roads area and, in mid-1862 was actively employed along the James River in support of the Army's Peninsular Campaign in April and May. During the summer, the temperature reached up to 150 degrees in the interior of the ship. In late December 1862, following repairs in November, she was ordered south for further operations. Caught in a storm off Cape Hatteras, she foundered on 31 December. Monitor’s wreck was discovered in 1973 and is now a marine sanctuary. Bombardment of Sewell's Point, Virginia, 8 May 1862. Print published in Fiveash, "Virginia-Monitor Engagement", Norfolk, Virginia, 1907. It depicts USS Monitor (at left) accompanied by the Federal warships Naugatuck, Dacotah, Seminole and Susquehanna (listed in no particular order, and depicted rather inaccurately), firing on the Confederate batteries at Sewell's point, near Norfolk.
