She was originally named Marie Horn and renamed in 1969 when she was sold. This diesel engine refrigerator freighter was owned by Trans Caribbean Lines of Monrovia and managed by Trans Caribbean Agencies of Miami.
The Deep Freeze was 231 feet long, had a 33.5 foot beam and displaced 1,138 gross tons.
Lloyd's of London reports that she burnt off of Port Limon on July 1, 1972, and she was subsequently dismantled.
