She carried the name ANDALUSIAN until 1962 when she was renamed CITY OF ELY, and in 1964 returned to her original name ANDALUSIAN, which she carried until she was sold to Greek owners in 1966 and renamed CAPETAN ANDREAS P

In January 1973 she went on fire in Constantza (now known as Constanta, Romania - on the Western coast of the Black Sea) and was declared a constructive total loss and was broken up there.
