Summary edit

Description
English: "Philia", a ship of the Hellenic Center for Marine Research, Harbour of Heraklion, Crete, Greece.

The F/R PHILIA, built at Piraeus (1985), commissioned in 1986, operates from her home port of Irakleion, not only in Cretan waters, but also throughout the Aegean and Ionian. The PHILIA's greatest asset is her flexibility, she is large enough to operate offshore but because of her shallow draft she can also operate close inshore. She has covered many thousands of miles carrying out research and in 1997 was refitted with a bulbous bow and a second engine as part of the Greek Government's commitment to marine science research.
