Too bad, I saw this cargo ship scrapped in the port of Gandía (Valencia-Spain), around the 1970s, with the name "LOBITO", in its last stage of useful life, I saw its propeller shaft cut, and as its entire structure fell apart within about 3 months ..

Yes, this really was the same ship:

Riouw represents an example of turning plowshares into swords, and then back again into plowshares. Riouw was a U.S.-built C3 cargo ship that was completed as an escort aircraft carrier during WW-II. After the war ended she was converted back into a cargo ship. See below (yes, this really is the same ship!):
