ANDROS JET (ΑΝΔΡΟΣ ΤΖΕΤ)
-Sea Jets
Built in 1997 (age 27). Registered in Limassol. Current line: None (laid-up in Chalkida)
The high speed ferry ANDROS JET was built in 1997 in Australia, as the CEZAYIRLI HASAN PAŞA 1 for the Turkish company İstanbul Deniz Otobüsleri (İDO). She began service on the Yalova-Pendik line on the Marmara Sea, where she remained for 20 years. In 2017 she was sold to the Greek company Sea Jets and was renamed ANDROS JET. She was converted in Perama and in Chalkida, and began service in 2018, on the inter-Cyclades lifeline, namely the Lavrion-Kea-Kythnos-Andros-Tinos-Syros-Paros-Naxos-Donousa-Amorgos-Koufonisi-Schoinousa-Irakleia-Folegandros-Sikinos-Ios-Thirassia-Santorini-Anafi line. Her first year was very troublesome due to multiple engine failures and delays. In 2019 she was deployed on the Rafina-Andros-Tinos-Mykonos-Paros-Naxos line, before being deployed once again on the Lavrion-Kea-Kythnos-Andros-Tinos-Syros-Paros-Naxos-Donousa-Amorgos-Koufonisi-Schoinousa-Irakleia-Folegandros-Sikinos-Ios-Thirassia-Santorini-Anafi line later in the summer, where she had a much better second season. In 2020, she suffered yet another major failure, which prematurely ended her summer season. She has since remained laid-up in Chalkida.
