Maria Dacoutros was a 210-ton barquetine built in 1902 at Castellamare, Italy. She was originally named Argo but was renamed when bought by Pietro Dacoutros, a Maltese wine merchant. The ship also carried grain, as well as other commodities, between Malta and Gozo. She survived the Second World War and sank off Cyprus in 1952.
