 MS Gripsholm was a combined ocean liner/cruise ship built in 1957 by Ansaldo Shipyard Genoa Italy for the Swedish American Line for use in transatlantic traffic from Gothenburg to New York as well as long-distance cruising.In 1971 she was laid up for 3 months in Göteborg being converted into a pure cruise ship thus ending her Transatlantic career.In 1975 she was sold to the Karageorgis Lines who named her MS Navarino and used her on Mediterranean routes until 1981 when she was damaged in a grounding off Patmos.After some repair difficulties in 1984 the vessel became the first ship of the newly formed Regency Cruises and was named MS Regent Sea.
