This Ro/Ro is a veteran of G.A. Ferries’s fleet. Purchased in 1995, she has served varios routes, both in Greece and international, linking also Ancona and Patras, operated on that line also by other operators. On last years she served LeghornTrapani link and Genoa – Caralis; actually is laid up at Perama, where, after various charters, G.A. decided to fit her with new engines and asked the Ministry to deploy her to the Dodecanese. The problem is that the Ministry had given the permission, instead inviting G.A. Ferries to deploy passenger ferries on Rhodes line.
