MV Rozi was a tugboat, built in Bristol in 1958. She was originally called Rossmore, and was later renamed Rossgarth. She was sold to Tug Malta in 1981 as the Rozi and operated in the Grand Harbour. After being decommissioned, in 1992 she was scuttled off Ċirkewwa as an artificial reef. It is now one of the most popular dive sites in Malta.
