she was used as a whaler until 1925 and was thereafter
used as a coastal freighter in Peru. Then a longer period
followed as a whaler again from 1928 to 1937. She was then
rebuilt and used as a passenger ship until the Germans
requisitioned her in second world war. She served as a
guard boat in Stavanger for several years, and after the
war ended, she again was put in service as a passenger
ship. In 1955 she was rebuilt again at Fredrikshavn as a
freighter. In 1981 she was finally taken out of service.
