In 1984 Peter Wessel (3) was replaced by Peter Wessel (4), and chartered to Stoomvaart Maatschappij Zeeland N.V (SMZ) for Harwich-Hook of Holland service as the Zeeland. In 1985 Peter Wessel (3) was sold to Stena Line and renamed Stena Nordica. In 1988 Stena Nordica was sold to Jadrolinija and renamed Marko Polo, entering service between Ancona-Corfu-Patras-Corfu-Dubrovnik-Split-Venice. In 1992 Marko Polo was chartered to TT-Line for Trelleborg-Rostock service. In 1994 Marko Polo was chartered to Compagnie Marocaine de Navigation (COMANAV), for service between Nador-Sete.
