Sister of the Priam she was completed for Glen Line as the Radnorshire. In 1973 she was transferred to the China Navigation Co. and renamed Perseus. After only eleven years with the Holt Group she was sold to John Swire’s China Navigation Co., a company in which Holt’s had a substantial interest, and renamed Kwangsi. Three years later, in 1981, she was sold to undisclosed owners and renamed Asia Dragon with registry in Panama. Shortly afterwards she was sold on to the Saudi Venture Corporation of Jeddah, later to be restyled Saudi Falcon Navigation Co., and renamed Saudi ZamZam. Two years later, in 1984, she was sold to Chinese shipbreakers.
Guess that must be the one then.
