Mr Cornelis Bustraan from Curacao informed me that this is the former RICHARD BORDEN, built in 1950's in Germany for Woermann Linie. She was used at Curacao for a film with the same name ("Curacao" that is, originally "Just an other day in Paradise") as PRINCE OF MALTA.
However: I can't find RICHARD BORDEN in Lloyds Register 1967 of 1974. The only name that looks like it is RICHARD BROHAN, built 1958, later HADSUND, FOSTER ENTERPRISE, HAWTHORNE ENTERPRISE. No trace of her either.
