Holland America Line has sold cruise ship Prinsendam to German cruise company Phoenix Reisen.

Following the sale, the 37,983-tonne, 835-guest ship will change ownership on July 1, 2019.

Prinsendam was built in 1988 as Royal Viking Sun for Royal Viking Line. The ship was operated by Cunard Line from 1994 through 1998 and then transferred to Seabourn Cruise Line, where it became Seabourn Sun in 1999.

In 2002, the ship joined the Holland America Line fleet and was renamed Prinsendam.
