The 37 meter long tug Cavalier XV sank on the Paraná River near San Cosme y Damián, Paraguay.  The area was struck by a strong storm with large swells causing water ingress.  The Cavalier XV’s engine room flooded and partially sank leaving only part of the superstructure above water.  No reports of injuries. Authorities state there is some oil sheen around the wreck.
