The vessel was built at the Guangzhou Wenchong shipyard in China for Norfolk Line, originally being named Maersk Anglia. The vessel first operated on the Scheveningen to Felixstowe route until 2006 when it was moved onto the Vlaardingen to Felixstowe route. In 2009 the vessel was moved to the Irish Sea and deployed on the Heysham to Dublin route.

In July 2010 the vessel was sold to DFDS Seaways and renamed Anglia Seaways – but remained on the Heysham to Dublin route.
In February 2011 the vessel was chartered to Seatruck Ferries and was deployed on the Heysham to Dublin route until 15 January 2012.
Then she was transferred over to the Immingham-Rotterdam route which she remained on until 30 April when the vessel was moved onto the Rosyth-Zeebrugge route.
