Pacific Princess was brought to Aliağa ship breaking yards to be demolished and beached by the help of tugboats. You can see that she has a list to starboard in the pictures. The boat was listed for sale for 4.5 million euros. But never got attention. So she was sold to scrap for 2.5 million euros. On the way to İzmir, she was caught to a storm and got some damage. She started to leak water so the demolition company immediately beached the ship. You can get detailed information about the ship by clicking here.
