Interesting information - so the owner did not enjoy her for too long. Good news about the crew.

Anyway, a series of (already at that time looking old fashioned) B-346 general cargo ships, was ordered by Pakistan National
Shipping in Gdańsk Shipyard. However, only three vessels were delivered as planned:

B346/01 NAWABSHAH, IMO 7905845, 1981;

B346/03 SIBI, IMO 7905869, 1981;

Next five ships were sold to Greek owner, while still under construction.
In year 1998 they all were chartered by PLO subsidiary POL-Asia from current owner Vroon, with intention to be purchased.

B346/04 KRITI CORAL (launched as ZHOB), IMO 7905871, 1982; (Polish Ocean Lines: POL PANSY);

In February 1999, m/s "POL Daisy" run aground in and spent all charter time in Naval Shipyard Gdynia, awaiting repair.
In the end of year 1999 the entire charter agreement was cancelled and all ships were returned to owner.
