Morning Rick , the same owners had a sister ship 'Urkia' used to 'fix' them out of Anchor Iron Wharf down to N Spain with scrap,can't remember the owners name now but based in La Corunna if memory serves.... The Cape Crest and Mount Crest were more/less sisters but cannot recall their Spanish names when built in 1972 Cheers Gareth

Owners were Naviera Uralar S.A.
