The Odysseia story
The Odysseia was originally a commercial boat. Captain Giorgos, a Spartan, had this original idea to create an ancient Greek warship. So The Odysseia was redesigned as a replica of an ancient Greek Pentikondoros.
As Giorgos deeply believed that Lefkada was the ancient Ithaca, his conviction compelled him to carry out the work locally in Vlicho, Lefkada.
But time passed quickly and Captain Giorgos was no longer physically able to undertake by himself some of the tasks needed. His finances had dwindled and he slowly and sadly realized that his dream of sailing the Odysseia was not possible. He had to sell his Odysseia!
their devotion and dedication proved to be invaluable…
Gerasimos after many years at sea, with several boats accredited to the family name decided that the Odysseia was his calling, a mission that could become his profession. So he decided to make her his and to fulfill the Odysseia journey.
Many years in the boat yard of Vlicho, hours of hard work, sorrow, anguish and despair did not prevent Gerasimos and Mariedo, their devotion and dedication proved to be invaluable, an outstanding achievement and the outcome can be experienced today.
Captain Gerasimos and his family are delighted in the fact that they can offer to you a place in history when you join them for an extraordinary day, which will be etched on your minds forever.
