MV Tahitien
The MV ''Tahitien'' was a 1953 built ocean liner and later cruise ship originally built for the French shipping company Messageries Maritimes along with her sister the ''Caledonien''.〔(ss Caledonien, ss Tahitien )〕 ==History== ''Tahitien'' was put into service for the Marseilles to French Polynesia run. She operated in this service until the heavy competition from the Jet airliner industry caught up with Messageries Maritimes, who ended their passenger services and sold nearly their entire fleet, including ''Tahitien''. She would next be owned by the Limassol based Aphrodite Cruises (later named Mediterranean Sun Lines) who renamed her the ''Atalante''.〔(History )〕 ''Atalante'' was extensively refitted for low fare cruising in the Mediterranean, a role she became mildly popular carrying out. The ''Atalante'' would be rebuilt again in 1978 and 1993, allowing her facilities and accommodations to be improved.〔(MS Atalante )〕 After the ''Oceanos'' sank in 1991 ''Atalante'' was leased to the Epirotiki Lines, who renamed her ''Homericus''. Her name was reverted to ''Atalante'' in 1992 and she was laid up. Later that year ''Atalante'' was purchased by Paradise Cruises. Paradise carried out her 1993 refit, which saw her superstructure extended and a showlounge added. She operated once again as a cruise ship, and her service prospered fairly successfully until scrap metal prices skyrocketed in summer 2004. Although she was in good condition, ''Atalante'' sailed to Alang, India in 2005, where she was beached and scrapped.〔(Atalante )〕 Her sister ''Caledonien'' was scrapped in 1975.
