Tahitian Princess (formerly R Four) is a small luxury cruise ship owned by Princess Cruises. She sails in the South Pacific.
History
The vessel entered operation in 1999, under the flag of Renaissance Cruises. The ship was not owned by the company; instead owned by a group of French investors. When Renaissance declared bankruptcy in 2001, the ship was seized by creditors, along with the otehr seven vessels in the fleet.
In 2002, Princess Cruises secured a two year lease for R Four and her sister ship R Three (now Pacific Princess). The vessel entered operation at the end of 2002, and was renamed Tahitian Princess. At the end of the lease, Princess Cruises purchased both vessels.
