Because of the prevailing northwesterly winds, Hercules was often employed by sailing ships on northward voyages up the coast from San Francisco. At other times, Hercules was employed towing barges to other West Coast ports and to Hawaii, and in transporting equipment for the construction of the Panama Canal. In 1947, Hercules and the tug Monarch were tasked with towing the hulk of the battleship Oklahoma to San Francisco Bay for scrapping. However, 500 miles off Hawaii, they were hit by a powerful storm and the Oklahoma began to take on water and sink. The Hercules was unable to free itself until the last moment, narrowly avoiding being dragged to the bottom of the sea by the Oklahoma. In 1986, it was designated a National Historic Landmark. It is now one of the exhibits at the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park and is moored at the park's Hyde Street Pier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale: 1\/50\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWidth: 163mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHeight: 420mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLength: 915mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"with-icon__beside\"\u003e*Picture is of finished model.
