I just added this page and know it's missing a lot of relevant information, and I will try to extend it soon. The reason I added it is that I actually were on that ferry not long before the tragic accident. I suspect there might be a page in the Greek version on Wikipedia, but since I don't understand Greek I haven't been able to verify that. Given that this is one of the most serious maritime accidents tat has occured in Europe in the last decade there should be a page. --jpw 02:18, 25 February 2006 (UTC)Reply

Somebody should really take the time and write up this article. It was a significant shipwreck that cost many lives. It was definitely far more important than the recent M/S_Sea_Diamond ship wreck. I would do it myself but haven't got the time nor the info at the moment. Kalambaki2 22:15, 12 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

more about the ship

edit

This article is all about the shipwreck, and mentions very little about the ship itself. While I know the shipwreck is a very big deal, at least one or two section should be devoted to ship's history & specs. Griffinofwales (talk) 13:55, 26 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Traffic obstacle aspect not addressed

Nobody though about blowing up those islets to get rid of the navigation risks? Usually there no lamposts left in the middle of 8-lane highways. 91.82.36.49 (talk) 12:54, 14 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Panoramic view

The caption says the Portes islets are visible to the left, but personally I can't see any sign of them even when I click on the picture to enlarge it. Is this illustration really useful?188.230.240.75 (talk) 13:13, 19 September 2017 (UTC)Reply

Death Toll

edit

The article both says 81 people died, and 82. Is this 81 people on the ship plus the port-master who had the heart attack, or is this simply an error, or what? 68.156.95.34 (talk) 07:08, 4 November 2017 (UTC)Reply
