Evolution of the M.S. Mediterranean Sky and her sister ships

- The evolution of the Greek ferry Mediterranean Sky, along with her three sister ships. She was launched in 1953 as the passenger/cargo ocean liner City of York for the Ellerman Lines. She would later be rebuilt into the ferry Mediterranean Sky by the Karageorgis Lines in 1971.
After a long and varied career, she was eventually sold on to Golden Cruisers in 1996. However soon after she would be arrested in the port of Patras that same year for unpaid harbour fees and laid up. Later on, she was towed round and laid up in the bay of Elefsina, West of Athens.
In early 2003, after years of neglect, she sprung a leak, capsized and partially sank, coming to rest on her starboard side. The wreck remains there to this day.

Very good work!
I used to go with my sister and my parents every year between 1980 and early 90s with the ships of the Karageorgis Lines from Ancona to Patras and back to spend my summer holidays in Greece..... I have countless beautiful memories of these great ships and my childhood / youth. Thank you very much for these great impressions, even if it makes me a little sad how it ended. Best regards from Germany Ro
worth waiting a year for this video!
Great video,with beautiful ships. I sailed on the Mediterranean Sea from Ancona to Patras in June 1974.I was a boy but I remember that in comparison with the old Efthymiadis ships she was like new,modern and luxurious. Then i sailed back to Ancona on her one month later. The Efthymiadis ferries should be an interesting theme: they were four swedish tankers converted in ferries,at the time the biggest ferries in the world.They had nice accomodations,modern for their era,enormous decks and a good on board service,that became worse after a few years. Their names? Phaistos,Minos,Sofia and Heleanna. The last one made headlines for a dramatic fire in August 1971,with the loss of 25 lives.Sofia and Heleanna served on the Patras Ancona line,while Minos and Phaistos served mainly on the Pireus Heraklion,or the Pireus Rhodos,later joined by the Sofia.
Crazy how she was rebuild! It almost looks like her entire original superstructure was removed!
Amazing video Henry! 🙂 You should be really proud of yourself.
Thank you so much Matthew, will be doing a similar video on the America next (once I finish it!). 😊
So fascinating, Henry! Thank you for this video! Your artwork is perfection and the shots on board the SKY at Petrola are stunning! BTW, I had no idea they had to adjust the SEA's superstructure. Makes much sense.
Thank you so much Peter! Your ship videos are truly amazing! 😊
dam didn't expect to see you here Peter!
