Description

St. Christopher Shipwreck is a grounded boat that was part of the British Royal Navy in World War II. Built in 1943, the rescue tug played a role in the war before being sold, used commercially and then getting snagged on shore in Ushuaia in southern Argentina.

Despite being part of the British Navy, the St. Christopher was initially built in the United States. The British initially knew it as the HMS Justice. After being sold for salvage operations in the south of Argentina, it suffered engine problems and was eventually beached in 1957.

The boat is 165 feet (50 meters) long and is made of wood. It was finally depleted of its oil reserves in 2004. As of 2019, St. Christopher is still grounded and abandoned at Ushuaia.
