Built in Bremen, she had a service speed of 15 knots.

Operated by Compagnie Des Chargeurs Caledoniens, she visited Onehunga on a couple of occasions, when freight requirements exceeded those able to be carried by "Ile De Lumiere". Otherwise she operated the Australia to Noumea run, via Norfolk Island.

She was wrecked at Hamriyyah on 30 April 1981, and broken up at Gadani Beach in June 1981.
