She is one of large class of cargo liners, built from 1955 by Messageries Maritimes, the Godavery class.
Her sisters were Moonie, Le Natal, Sindh, Tigre, Yarra, Koung-Si, Yalou, Si Kiang and Yang-Tse, most are on the site under various names.
The class was further developed into the M and V class, some of the V's ending up as part containerships.

Another one of the series of beautiful sisters we had lately seen on this site.
Wonderful bow, proud standing bipod cargo masts, absolutely nice bridge and accomodation block; beautiful streamlined classic funnel.
