A good omen in the waters of the the Mediterranean (video)

[ The Ship’s Log – 27 August 2024 ]

” Good morning from the most beautiful waters in the world, the Mediterranean.

Our journey begins from Algeria, heading to the distant land of Asia, Japan.

Hope, joy, luck, and safe travels!

All the signs in our work are significant… and this is one of them!

I wish all sailors safe journeys and a happy return to Greece! “


– Simos Chios, Chief Engineer


We would like to thank Simos Chios for sending us the video and message, and wish him “Fair Winds and Following Seas”!
