Evia Star

Evia Star

The 87 meter long, 940 dwt ro-ro ferry Evia Star collided with a yacht near the port of Marmari, Greece.  The ferry loaded with 57 passengers and vehicles was departing for a scheduled voyage to Rafina when it struck the sailboat.   The sailboat suffered damage to its mast while the Evia Star was undamaged.  No reports of injuries.   The Coast Guard dispatched a rescue boat to tow the yacht back to Marmari.   The Evia Star proceeded back to Marmari to be surveyed, but was later able to continue on its voyage.
