Bud Bar is an synthetic reef near Boynton Seaside, Florida. It was created when MS Havel, a 169-foot (fifty two m) lengthy German freighter that was used to haul goods between Florida, the Bahamas, and Haiti, was sunk in 95 feet (29 m) of water on July 16, 1987. The ship was renamed Budweiser Bar or Bud Bar as a result of the company donated money to sink the ship.
