EMPEDOKLIS (ΕΜΠΕΔΟΚΛΗΣ)
-Aianteiaki NE (2016-2024)
Built in 2016 (age 8). Was registered in Piraeus. Current line: None in Greece (sold overseas, presumably Gabon)
The double-ended ferry EMPEDOKLIS was ordered in 2010 by the Greek company Aianteiaki NE. She was initially planned to be deployed on the Piraeus-Aegina line on the Saronic Gulf, but her construction stopped in 2012 due to a lack of funds and the impact of the Greek financial crisis. She was launched in 2013, but remained laid-up in Salamina for the next 3 years. After finally securing the necessary funds, her owner resumed her construction and she was completed in Greece in 2016. She was deployed on the Perama-Salamina line. In 2024 she was sold overseas and was renamed IB ATLANTIC I.
