On 4 December 2025, ANDROS KING (ex VOLCAN DE TABURIENTE) of Golden Star Ferries left her dry dock at Perama (Piraeus II), where part of her extensive refit has been carried out.
Over the past 20 days, she has had her propeller shafts and bow thrusters installed, while the old antifouling coatings were removed and replaced with fresh paint. Her hull was also treated with silicone paint, and significant work on her interior is ongoing.
ANDROS KING is expected to enter service in March 2026. Built in Spain in 2006, she has capacity for 1,500 passengers and 1,200 lane metres.
