If this ship is, in fact, ex 'Mini Lead', her IMO number would be 7021259.
I have her history as:
Built 1970 by Hakodate Dock Co, Muroran.
Ex 'Mini Lead' 1970 to 1992 [Elmini Lead Inc, Panama].
Laid up at Piraeus from 10-11-82; damaged by fire 17-04-85 at Salamis Island. Sold 1992 in damaged condition.
Ex 'Eleni' 1992 to 1994 [Galatia Shipping Co SA, Piraeus]. Employed as storage vessel at Agios Georgios, Piraeus.
Renamed 'Agios Georgios' 1994 [same owners].
She is still listed in Equasis today [just checked] with this name / owners.
So -
is the ship pictured in fact the ex-'Mini Lead' [in which case her Equasis entry is out-of-date, which is perhaps not surprising in view of her history]? or
is this a different ship entirely? [but certainly a member of this class].

I have since looked at the photo of this ship's bow and the name 'Mini Lead' can be clearly discerned.
The question now is: when was she renamed from 'Agios Georgios' to 'Vasiliki' [and were there another name/s in between]?
Clearly, the Equasis entry is out-of-date.

'One of the largest group of vessels ever ordered at one time by a single firm were the 52 mini-bulkers built for Ceres Hellenic Enterprises, which belonged to George P. Livanos. A beamy, shallow-draught vessel, with two holds and one 8-ton crane, they measured 215 ft in length. The 52 ships came from just seven Japanese shipyards.'
