The landing craft PANAGIA KOIMISIS II was built in 1996 in Greece, as the FANEROMENI POROU of the Greek company VR Ferries. She was deployed on the Galatas Troizinias-Poros line, and she remained there for ten years. She was sold in 2006 to NE Elafonisou, and she was renamed PANAGIA KOIMISIS II. She was deployed on the Pounta-Elafonisos line, where she remained until 2007. In 2008 she was sold to Antiparos Shipping, and she underwent a major conversion in Perama, whereupon she was lengthened and she saw her indoor areas being fully refurbished. She entered service on the Paros-Antiparos line on the Cyclades, where she remained until 2025. That same year, she was sold back to NE Elafonisou, thus returning to the latter for a second stint. She returned to service on the Pounta-Elafonisos line for the first time in 18 years.
