V279 is documented on European in port and starboard photographs from 2006. Both sides have the same orientation, with the bump aft on the starboard side. European and Katyaz, also called Katy Z, were the first two vessels registered to European Maritime Co. Ltd., then moved to separate ship companies in 2006. European retained V279, while Katyaz seems always to have used V278; the reason is unclear.

V278 comes from a port-side photograph of Arabella, dated “31.120.2006” in the original. It appears to have been used by most of the fleet.
