It was built for the Helgoland ferry service and served the Hamburg- Helgoland- Cuxhaven route in the summer season . After four months in use, it was chartered to the Seaboard & Caribbean Transport Corporation in Liberia for 195 days and transferred to Miami in October 1962 .

On January 11, 1963, the coat of arms from Hamburg arrived in Hamburg and was subsequently overhauled by Blohm & Voss.
