The 561-foot ship was built for an estimated $25 million in 1970 and put into service in 1971. Decommissioned five years ago and deemed too costly to renovate, it was sold for scrap to Turkey's Izmir Ship Recycling for about $3.3 million.
Built in 1971 for Flagship Cruises as the Sea Venture, the ship was renamed Pacific Princess in 1975 after joining the Princess fleet.
