She was a 3,092 gross ton ship, length 353ft x beam 39.1ft, one funnel, two masts, iron construction, single screw and a speed of 12 knots. There was accommodation for 142-1st and 800-3rd class passengers. Launched on 24/5/1873, she sailed on her maiden voyage from Bremen to Southampton and Panama on 7/12/1873. On 12/5/1874 she commenced her first voyage from Bremen to Havre and New York and on 6/2/1875 started her last Bremen - Southampton - New York voyage.(6 round voyages). On 1/3/1876 she inaugurated a service from Bremen to South America and on 5/5/1878 resumed sailings between Bremen, Southampton and New York. On 11/8/1886 she transferred to the Bremen - Suez - Australia service and in 1890 was rebuilt with triple expansion engines and accommodation for 44-1st, 18-2nd and 558-3rd class passengers.
