In 1974, Algoma Central purchased the vessel, registered the ship in West Germany and renamed it Algosea.

Emerging in 1976, Algosea sailed for Canada for conversion to a self-unloading bulk carrier at Herb Fraser and Associates in Port Colborne, Ontario.

The Algosea was renamed Sauniere in 1982 and continued in service until 2009 when the bulk carrier was sold for scrap and broken up in Turkey in 2010.

The engines powered one shaft turning a 4-bladed controllable pitch propeller and a 600 hp (450 kW) bow thruster.

[1] In 1973, Langra Schiffahrtsges GmbH and Company KG took over operations of the vessel while ownership remained with Kristian Jebsens Rederi A/S.

Algoma Central renamed the vessel Algosea and sent it to Swan Hunter's yard at North Shields, England to be lengthened.

Emerging in 1976, Algosea then crossed the Atlantic Ocean to undergo conversion to a self-discharging bulk carrier at Herb Fraser and Associates at their yard in Port Colborne, Ontario.

After experiencing issues with the engines of Algosea, Algoma Central ordered the ship to be re-engined at Halifax, Nova Scotia in late-1981, early 1982.

In 1982, Algosea was chartered to Navigation Sonamar and operated by the Societe Québécoise d'Exploration Minière (SOQUEM) to transport salt from the Magdalen Islands to ports along the North American east coast, the Great Lakes and Saint Lawrence Seaway.

On 15 September 1996, Sauniere grounded on Bay State Shoal in the St. Lawrence River near Brockville, Ontario.
