Loads of shots of her in her latest guise, but only one with her original name - so here is CGM La Perouse.

She had already been previously named Ville de la Fontaine, La Fontaine and CGM La Perouse, again becoming CGM La Perouse between 1993 and 1998. She was then renamed Cap Verde in 1998, Sea Cheetah in 2000 and later that year joined the ever increasing fleet of MSC becoming MSC Maria Laura under which name she is still trading
