In 1992 the company bought this ship from Naviera Guadiaro. She was one of two sister ships built in 1973 for Naviera Asón. Both were built by Astilleros del Cadagua, in Baracaldo (Vizcaya). They were originally two general cargo ships that were converted into reefers during building. Both were purchased in 1975 by Naviera de Canarias, which in 1984/86 sold them to Naviera Guadiaro, from whom this vessel was acquired. She was scrapped at Gijón in 1995.
