You may find photos of these two vessels in Shipspotting under the above names - truth is they look much pretier in their original black / dark blue hull colors.
I personally sailed on the Pacific Prosperity as a cadet, and I am happy to see her as the Pontos frequently in Drapetsona port on my way to work.
Thanks for posting!
