In 1996, she was sold to McDermott Subsea, and after conversion back to a cable layer (as opposed to a cable repairer) it was resold to Elettra S.p.A. of Italy and renamed Certamen. It went to work
in the ice free Mediterranean, under the management of Italcable and based in Catania.

On June 25 2014, she sailed to Valletta, Malta. Her name was quickly changed to Certa and she was reflagged to Belize for the tow to the breakers.On July 8 she was towed out of Grand Harbour, Valletta, Malta by the tug Sea Patron en route to Aliaga, Turkey for scrap.
