- SeaFrance
Cèzanne was built in 1980 by Kockums Varv Ab, Malmö,
for Rederi Ab Nordö, Malmö. She was initially named
Ariadne, and had two sisters
Zenobia and Scandinavia. In 1981 she was sold
to So Mejdunaroden Automobile Transport, Bourgas, Bulgaria (S.O.M.A.T)
and renamed Trapezitza. She entered service
with MedLink between Livorno-Iran-Iraq. In 1988 Trapezitza had a brief charter
with DFDS, before being bought, along with sistership Tzarevetz, by Sealink (UK). Trapezitza was briefly renamed
Fantasia
(1)
(which was eventually used on her sistership). In May 1989, she
entered service between Dover-Calais as the freight ferry Channel Seaway. In October of the same
year she was sent to Lloyds Werft, Bremerhaven, for rebuilding
as a passenger ship, appearing as the Fiesta (2) in May 1990. She was
registered to Societé Propietaires des Navaires (SPN),
in which a 49% interest was held by Stena Line AB. In 1996 she was renamed SeaFrance Cèzanne. Stena Line sold their
interest in SPN in 1999.
