Indus was a 2,834 ton cargo ship which was built in Germany in 1945 and launched as Sasbeck.

[1][2] In May 1945, Sasbeck was one of 502 ships seized by the Allies after Germany was overrun at the end of the Second World War.

Sasbeck was one of the eleven uncompleted ships that was allocated to the United Kingdom.

After eighteen years service with Abrahamsen's, Indus was sold in 1968 to the Seabird Navigation Corporation, Liberia, being resold to the Lilly Navigation Corporation, Panama in 1969 and renamed Sea Falcon.

In 1970, Sea Falcon was sold back to Seabird, and served with them until 1971 when she was scrapped in Avilés, Spain.
