No, the USS Merrimack was never sunk during its time in service. It was burned and scuttled by Union forces during the American Civil War to prevent it from falling into Confederate hands.
The first battle between ironclads at Hampton Roads turned out to be a draw. The battle between the USS Monitor and the Confederate Merrimack became a moot point as they never battled again. The South had to sink the CSA Merrimack as it took in too much water. The USS Monitor, was in a draw with the Merrimack, and eventually was lost at sea. As it turned out, the gains would have been minimal.

The battle between the USS Monitor and the formerly known Union ship called the USS Merrimack, was the first ever battle between ironclad warships. The Merrimack had been reconstructed as an ironclad and renamed the CSS Virginia. Although the Monitor received the most damage between the two ships, for all practical purposes it was a draw.
