Aretousa - Girolata
 
 
This page is devoted to postcards and photographs of the Minoan Lines vessel Aretousa of 1995, which since 2001 has been the CMN ship Girolata.
 
Girolata (2) was built as the Aretousa, the first purpose-built ship acquired by Minoan Lines. Whilst not as fast as later Minoan newbuilds, she was still capable of 25.8 knots. She can carry 1500 passengers and 1000 cars, and was delivered from her builders in Norway in 1995. She is 28417 grt. In 2001 she was sold to CMN as their Girolata (2).
