Siboney underwent a major refit in 1924 during which time she was replaced on her routes by SS Yucatán, formerly the North German Lloyd ship Prinz Waldemar.[12] After returning to service for the Ward Line, Siboney was the first to relay messages from Miami about the severity of the Great Miami Hurricane when she passed there shortly after the storm hit in September 1926.[18]
On 18 February 1928, Siboney rammed and sank the coal barge Seneca off Ambrose Light during a snowstorm[19]; the barge had been cut down in 1915 from SS Seneca, coincidentally, a former Ward Line ship.[12] Bad luck continued for Siboney on 5 January 1929, when she rammed and sank the Bauer Towing Company tug Phillip Hoffman off the Battery, killing the tug’s engineer.[20]
