During the Civil War, a large battle between two ships occurred in March, 1862. These ships were called Ironclads because metal was put around the outside of the ship. This made the boat very strong. These were some of the first boats ever to be made out of metal. Most other boats at that time were made out of wood. These Ironclads were called the Merrimack and the Monitor.

This was the first battle between ironclad boats, and it ended in a tie.
