MV Kungsholm was built in 1966 by the John Brown & Company shipyard in Clydebank, Scotland as a combined ocean liner / cruise ship for the Swedish American Line.[2] She was later rebuilt as a full-time cruise ship sailing under the names MV Sea Princess, MV Victoria, MV Oceanic II.[5] and MV Mona Lisa.[7] In September 2010 she was retired from service as she did not fulfill requirements to SOLAS 2010, becoming the floating hotel Veronica, before being scrapped in 2016.[8]
