HIGHSPEED 4 (ΧΑΪΣΠΙΝΤ 4)

-Hellenic Seaways 

Built in 2000 (age 24). Registered in Piraeus. Current line: None (under refit in Piraeus)

Among the best high speed craft and ships of the Greek coastal service, the HIGHSPEED 4 was built in 2000 in Australia, and was the fourth high speed ferry to join the Greek company Minoan Flying Dolphins. Delivered in the same year as the HIGHSPEED 2 and the HIGHSPEED 3, she began service on the Piraeus-Paros-Naxos line on the Cyclades, where she immediately earned much acclaim for her fast and comfortable service. Minoan Flying Dolphins was renamed Hellas Flying Dolphins in 2002. She was deployed on the Piraeus-Syros-Tinos-Mykonos-Paros-Naxos line in 2003. In 2005 her company was rebranded as Hellenic Seaways, and she was deployed on the Piraeus-Chania line. In 2006 she was deployed on the Piraeus-Syros-Tinos-Mykonos-Paros-Naxos-Chania line. In 2008 she was deployed on the Piraeus-Syros-Tinos-Mykonos line. In 2009 she was on the Piraeus-Syros-Tinos-Mykonos-Paros-Naxos-Ios-Santorini line, and in 2010 she operated on the Piraeus-Syros-Tinos-Mykonos-Paros-Naxos line, forming a formidable duo with her fleetmate, namely the HIGHSPEED 5, during both seasons. She stayed there in 2011 and in 2012, before being deployed solely on the Piraeus-Paros-Naxos line in 2013. In 2014 she was deployed on the Piraeus-Paros-Naxos-Koufonisi-Amorgos line, where she was very successful. In 2015, following the fire suffered by the HIGHSPEED 5 (which later became the HIGHSPEED 7 and is now the OLYMPIC CHAMPION JET of Sea Jets), the HIGHSPEED 4 replaced her on her service, namely on the Heraklion-Santorini-Ios-Paros-Mykonos line for the summer. She returned to the Piraeus-Paros-Naxos-Koufonisi-Amorgos line in 2016. In 2019, she was deployed exclusively on the Piraeus-Paros-Naxos-Koufonisi line. In 2021 she returned to the Piraeus-Paros-Naxos-Koufonisi-Amorgos line.
