The Greek Navy makes some PR trips with a crew of navy and public every now and then apparently. This is not a selected, trained crew but still good to see it under oars. Filmed with a drone maybe?
As winter comes on in northern latitudes this film is very inspiring...
A film from 2016 also...courtesy Hellenic Maritime Navy Etiquette and Public Relations Directorate
Apparently Olympias has been in the water over the summer.
She was successfully restored after the ravages of rot and worms and was 'søsæt' on 19th of April.
She is a bit sad-looking under tow but here is the Hellenic Navy promo of the event
It seems a test was done last summer witnessed by a nice promo video from the Hellenic Navy which gets the pulse moving and lets her beauty shine through better than when a towed hulk.
But then..tadaaa! A video which is really inspiring! Sponsors Jotun (marine paint firm) filmed Olympias for an advertisement. I don't think I'll buy their paint but the film is wonderful.
Shot this summer. The Age of the Trireme continues !!!!
