Re the DAN SWIFT she was built as a ro/ro ferry , then as the SENTOSA she was partly converted to a cable ship, the KRAKA in Croatia (as witnessed by her stern), but eventually the deal fell through and she was converted ta an accommodation vessel.
She has been laid up at Marsa for quite a long time now.
keep safe
