history

The Djursland II was ordered from Schichau Unterweser in Bremerhaven on June 15, 1973 and laid down on October 22 of the same year under hull number 2252. The ship was launched on April 30, 1974. After the takeover by the Danish Grenaa Hundested Lines on July 30, 1974, the ship began ferry service between Grenaa and Hundested on August 6 .

In 1981 the Djursland II was sold under the shortened name Djursland to Det Forenede Dampskibs-Selskab before it returned to service with the Grenaa-Hundested lines in 1988. On May 1, 1994, after almost twenty years of service on the route from Grenaa to Hundested, the ship was decommissioned and laid up in Fredericia .

In August of the same year the Djursland went under the name Benchijigua II and under the Spanish flag to Fred. Olsen & Co. , to be used from October between Los Cristianos , La Gomera and La Palma . In 1995 the ship was given the shortened name Benchijigua . Since March 2000 it has been operating as Betancuria on the route from Las Palmas de Gran Canaria via Puerto del Rosario to Arrecife .

After the Betancuria was issued again from June 2001, it went to El Salam Maritime in February 2002 under the name Sara I and was henceforth used between Akaba and Nuweiba . From July to September 2003 and from 2004 to September 2005 the Moroccan shipping company Comarit chartered the ship for the route from Almería to Al Hoceïma .

The Sara I had been chartered out permanently to the Spanish Lineas Maritimas Europeas since September 2005 and was in service on the route from Algeciras to Tangier . In January 2010 the ship was finally decommissioned and laid up in Suez . After a three-month layover, it became the property of a demolition yard in Alang, India, where it arrived on May 10, 2010 under the transfer name Winner 10 .
