Built in Ringkobing as a sister ship to "Arktis Pearl", she is powered by one 1100hp Alpha diesel engine, producing a service speed of 10 knots.

Her Danish owners, who chartered the vessel to Reef Shipping for her solitary visit to Onehunga, sold her to Middle Eastern interests in 1996, since when she has changed hands on a handful more occasions.

She has been sailing under the Lebanese flag since 2008, and operated in African waters until she was laid up in Senegal in 2017.
