 The Greece-based Strintzis Lines purchased the ship and renamed her "Ionian Express", with intention to rebuild her as a car-passenger ferry for their Swansea Cork Ferries (although officially renamed "Ionian Express", this name was never painted on her hull).A fire broke out in her engine room while the rebuilding at Perama, Greece, and for a third time the ship was declared a total constructive loss.No further buyers were found to restore the ill-fated ship, and she was towed to the scrapyard in Aliağa, Turkey, on 29 March 1995, and was subsequently broken up.
