- Lurline; Ellinis (1932 - 1987) Ellinis arrived in Melbourne on 20th January 1964. For over 10 Years she made regular voyages to Australia, inbound via Suez and outbound via Panama. Ellinis was placed on cruising duties out of Sydney as well as the occasional around-the-world trip in 1972. Six years later she was transferred to the Mediterranean for cruising duties but was laid up at Piraeus in October 1980 to be cannibalized for parts (mostly for the Britanis, which was her former Matson Line sister, Mariposa), before being scrapped in 1987.
