Description
Ever Prosperity I was a Liberty ship cargo vessel, based in Monrovia, Liberia. In 1965, she was wrecked on the West Coast barrier reef of New Caledonia. In 1970, her sister ship, who belonged to the same ship-owner, had been given the same name and the same Korean captain, met with the same destiny, just a few miles away from the first wreck.
