MTS Oceanos shipwreck

MTS Oceanos

MTS Oceanos was a French-built and Greek-owned cruise ship that sank off South Africa's eastern coast on 4 August 1991. Launched in July 1952 by Forges et Chantiers de la Gironde in Bordeaux as the Jean Laborde, she was the last of four sister ships built for Messageries Maritimes. The ships were used on the Marseilles – Madagascar – Mauritius service. The Jean Laborde underwent several name changes including Mykinai, Ancona, and Eastern Princess; finally, in 1976, she was registered in Piraeus, Greece, under the name of Oceanos.
