Description:

St. Christopher Shipwreck is a grounded tugboat 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 grounding on shore of the Beagle Channel.
Despite being part of the British Navy, the Saint 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.
