ATHINA, Reg. at Lavrion (off .no 2). Registered 05/1926. Steam tug, 111 gt, 30 m X 7 m. Owner : K. Kyriakidis.
1939 : Sold to Ourania Valsamaki & Co.
1949 : Converted to a cargo ship
1950 : Renamed KOSTIS
04/1959 : Renamed ANDRONIKOS R.
09/1969 : Renamed CHRYSAVGI
25-6-1981 : Re-Registered at Chios (off. no 214)
XX-XX-1991 : Renamed PANAGIA ROUHOUNIOTISSA I. Owner : K. Platigos
Used as a tender for the ships calling at Chios Roads for many years, then laid up at Katarraktis, Chios.
At some point she was moved to a small yard near Chios Port where she remains laid up until today.
She is mentioned in the 1930 list of the book by S. Focas "The Greeks in the river shipping of lower Danube" :
ATHINA, 130 BHP, Greek Flag. Owner : P. Kyriakidis, Greece.
After her conversion to a cargo ship she was registered as "built in 1949" (very common at the time)
We are searching for her pre-1926 career. Can anyone help ?
