Jervis Bay (Liverpool Bay class of 1972)

Dear Colleagues!

Please help to identify container ship Jervis Bay, which is related to Liverpool Bay class container ships (http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2333763), built in 1972-73.

She is a mistery ship for me as I can't find any proper info about her. There were Jervis Bay built in 1969 with enough info in internet. But for 1972 built...just nothing found.

Some sources say that she is the only British built container ship from 6 sisters of Liverpool Bay class, designed by Marshall Meek. Other 5 were built in Germany: Liverpool, Cardigan, Kowloon, Tokyo and Osaka Bay. 

Any infro will be highly appreciated!

None of the five "Liverpool Bay" class ships from Howaldtswerke Deutsche Werft in the early 1970s ever carried the name "Jervis Bay". There was only the smaller, Clyde built one built 1970
There was, however, a P&O containership "Jervis Bay" built in 1992 by IHI, Japan (IMO 90055340)

Yes, Bob!

This is the dilemma! I'm not sure that Jervis Bay, I'm looking for, ever existed.

But I really saw some referencies about it.

At least here https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liverpool-Bay-Klasse_(1972) - right down corner.

I understand that wikipedia is not very reliable source.
