The 2006-built, 30,068 gt vessel is valued at $15m and was arrested in Durban in June 2016.
The Pretty Scene's special survey is overdue and the vessel is also out of class.
“A decision was taken by the applicants not to conduct any dry dock repairs prior to sale, which in turn means her special survey is over-due and she will require a re-classification before the successful purchaser is able to trade with her. Despite this, her overall condition is strong,” said Ariella Kuper, md and auctioneer of online auction company Clear Asset.
The vessel has a dispensation from the US for Ballast Water Treatment System extension to 30 July 2020.
The auction will take place on 5 December, at 10am in Durban at the premises of Bowman's who are acting for Credit Agricole Ship Finance.
