The ship Juan March was built in Valencia by the shipyards of the Unión Naval de Levante, for the Compañía Transmediterránea. She was launched on December 4, 1965 and entered into service in July 1966. Her overall length is 130.80 m, and her beam is 19.25 m. Initially she had capacity for 500 passengers in berths and 250 in seats. In 1985 Transmediterránea sold it to Sol Mediterranean Services Ltd., of Cyprus, which called it Sol Christina, and in 1986 it was bought by another Cypriot company Opal Lines, which called it Kipros Star and kept it in service until 1989. Later it became owned by Shipping and Commercial Corp. and had various names: Ocean Majesty (1989 - 1995), Homeric (1995) and, again, Ocean Majesty (since 1995).
