On this photo she was loading wood logs at San Pedro (Ivory Coast)
On 1972/73 Juliana Constructora Gijonesa delivered to Naviera Aznar two modern wood log carriers, also ready for general cargo and containers, christened as Monte Abril, Monte Ayala and Monte Almanzor. They were sold on 1985, 1979 and 1977 respectively.
In the case of Monte Abril after her sale she was renamed Virgo under Maltese flag, being renamed on 1989 Alkistis keeping the flag. On 1992 she was flagged in Hong Kong and renamed Sky One, name kept when transfered to Chinese flag on 1993. She was deleted from the lists on 2012, because her existence was in doubt.
