ELENI (ΕΛΕΝΗ)
-Kerkyra Seaways
Built in 1993 (age 31). Registered in Piraeus. Current line: Igoumenitsa-Corfu
The landing craft ELENI was built in 1993 in Greece for the Greek company Elene B Shipping. She was initially named ELENE B and began operations on the Rion-Antirrion line. In 2005 she was sold to the Corfu-based company Gerontakis Shipping, was renamed ELENI, and remained on the Rion-Antirrion line until 2007. That year, she underwent a small conversion in Perama, and was subsequently deployed on the Igoumenitsa-Corfu line on the Ionian Sea, where she has since been remaining. Since 2018 she is part of the Corfu Ferries joint venture, which includes her company and Kerkyra Seaways, to whom she was transferred in 2020. In 2021 she was deployed on the Piraeus-Aegina line on the Saronic Gulf, as a replacement ship for the AGIOS NEKTARIOS AEGINAS of ANES Ferries, which was sent to the Sporades in order to cover the service left by her fleetmate, the SYMI, following the latter's engine failure. She then returned to the Igoumenitsa-Corfu line in 2022.
