Three people sustained minor injuries yesterday when a passenger ferry approaching the island of Andros struck another vessel moored at the port.

Super Ferry II, arriving at the Cycladic island from the port of Rafina, bumped into the ferry Theologos due to “incorrect docking procedures,” the Merchant Marine Ministry said. Three passengers, whose nationalities were not made public, were transferred to an hospital on Andros for the treatment of minor injuries.

Super Ferry II, which was carrying 1,000 passengers, sustained significant damage and will not carry out scheduled routes between Rafina and Myconos today, shipping firm Blue Star Ferries said yesterday.

The extent of the damage to the Theologos, which had been preparing to set sail for Rafina with 566 passengers, was not clear yesterday.
