Not
much is known about Mercurius history, but we do know she
did service as a tugboat in Rio De Janeiro for several
decades. 3.May 2006 she was together with two other
tugboats deliberately scuttled outside Recife as
artificial reefs. The wreck rest today on her keel as a
classic "Donald Duck" wreck on a depth of 28 to 30 meter.
Also see the other two tug boats Saveiros and Taurus, also deliberately sunk as
artificial reefs.
