GLYKOFILOUSA VIII (ΓΛΥΚΟΦΙΛΟΥΣΑ VIII)
-Panagia Glykofilousa NE
Built in 2019 (age 5). Registered in Piraeus. Current line: Perama-Salamina
The impressive double-ended ferry GLYKOFILOUSA VIII was built in 2019 in Greece, She was delivered to the Greek company Panagia Glykofilousa NE, being the eighth ship to have been ordered by them. Besides being as modern and comfortable as her other two fleetmates, namely the GLYKOFILOUSA IV and the GLYKOFILOUSA V (which were both sold overseas in late 2023), her design and her amenities are among the most unique in the Greek coastal service. She operates under the 'Think Green' campaign, which makes her one of the most environmentally-friendly ferries in Greece. She possesses automated engines consuming low amounts of sulphur, interior and exterior furnishing made out of wood coming from the Agion Oros area, and also features dozens of plants and trees in both her indoor and her outdoor areas. She began service on the Perama-Salamina line, where she immediately made an impact as an eco-friendly vessel. In 2020 she moved to the Rion-Antirrion line. She returned to the Perama-Salamina line upon the completion of the 2023 summer season.
