Pozarica was a 2,503 GRT cargo ship that was built in 1945 as Hermes by NV Scheepswerke Gebroeders Pot, Bolnes, South Holland, Netherlands for the Koninklijke Nederlandsche Stoomboot Maatschappij.
She was passed to the Ministry of War Transport (MoWT) and renamed Empire Dove.
[3] Intended to be named Hermes for the Koninklijke Nederlandsche Stoomboot Maatschappij, she was seized in May 1945 in an incomplete state.
[1] On 3 July 1957, Pozarica had to be fumigated as her cargo of Spanish onions was infested with Colorado beetles.
The ship was taken in tow, but on 28 November her cargo shifted and she sank 60 nautical miles (110 km) west of La Rochelle, Charente-Maritime, France.
