The veteran landing craft MARIA T was built in 1979 in Greece. She was initially launched as as the DANAE, before being sold the following year to Paliogiannis Shipping and being renamed MARIA P. She operated on the Rion-Antirrion line from 1980 to 2008 (while also undergoing a conversion in Perama in 1986), before being sent the latter year to the Agia Marina-Nea Styra line, thus operating on the Petalioi Gulf. She returned to the Rion-Antirrion line in 2010. In 2013 she was sold to Thalassies Metafores and she was renamed MARIA T. She currently operates as a small Ro-Ro carrier, transporting goods all across the Aegean Sea, with Elefsina as the base port. She now serves on the Elefsina-Lavrion-Nea Styra-Marmari-Kea-Kythnos-Serifos-Sifnos-Milos-Andros-Syros-Tinos-Mykonos-Paros-Naxos-Irakleia-Schoinousa-Koufonisi-Donousa-Amorgos-Ios-Santorini-Thirassia-Patmos-Ikaria-Fournoi-Samos-Chios-Mytilene-Thessaloniki-Kavala-Kalymnos-Kos-Nisyros-Tilos-Rhodes-Karpathos-Castellorizon-Siteia-Rethymnon-Heraklion-Chania-Kythira line. She was heightened in Perama in 2021.
