This is reported on the website of the ANO “Unified Transport Directorate”.
Dorius was launched in the UK in 1989 and sailed in Greek waters. The last reconstruction of the ship took place in 2012. The ferry is capable of transporting more than 600 people in summer and about 450 in winter. There are two decks for passenger vehicles. The lower one can accommodate up to 104 cars, the upper one – up to 65. This vessel is completely identical to the Jonas ferry, with which they will work in tandem.
“The introduction of the additional ferry Dorius will make it possible to transport about 2 million passengers in both directions during the holiday season from June to October,” the Unified Transport Directorate emphasizes.
