The MV Pelikan was a cargo ship that was constructed in 1956 in Germany for the East German shipping company Deutsche Seereederei. Initially named MS Warnemünde, it was later renamed MV Pelikan. The ship mainly operated in the Baltic Sea and North Sea regions, transporting goods and passengers. In 1974, it was involved in a collision with a Swedish vessel, resulting in damage to both ships. The MV Pelikan was eventually sold to a Greek company in 1990 and renamed MV Maro. However, it was scrapped in 1991 in Turkey. The ship had a long and varied operational history, serving different companies and undergoing several name changes before meeting its end in the early 1990s.
