PALLAS ATHENA leaving Lisbon

PALLAS ATHENA leaving Lisbon on her final call on 3 August 1992. She was doing charter cruises under the Panamian flag prior to transfer to the Greek flag. Later used by Epirotiki on cruises to the Greek Islands, she was lost by fire in Piraeus in March 1994 and sold to be broken up in Turkey later that year. Text and images copyright L.M.Correia.
