May 26, 2024
The Hellenic Coast Guard in Mykonos has officially received a brand-new, state-of-the-art patrol boat of Greek design and construction — the SKIPPER 38 PATROL.
The handover ceremony took place on Sunday, May 26th at 11:30 a.m., at the Church of St. Nicholas in Gialos, Mykonos, in the presence of local authorities, representatives of the Port Authority, and members of the local community.
This significant donation was made by the renowned Greek shipyard BSK MARINE, owned by brothers Alexandros and George Stavroulakis together with entrepreneur Dimitris Fintirikos, in collaboration with the Florios Mykonos Foundation, founded by local businessman Florios Asimomytis — known for his strong contribution and ongoing support to the island through donations and partnerships with local institutions and public services.
A Meaningful Donation for Mykonos
After completing all required works and technical inspections, BSK MARINE proudly delivered a high-spec patrol boat that will greatly assist the Mykonos Port Authority and the local community in their vital operations.
The SKIPPER 38 PATROL represents the highest standards of Greek naval engineering — a result of BSK MARINE’s deep commitment to innovation, performance, and national contribution.
About the SKIPPER 38 PATROL
The vessel is powered by twin Mercury 400HP engines, achieving speeds of over 65 mph, and is equipped with cutting-edge navigation and communication systems.
These features significantly enhance the Coast Guard’s capability to conduct patrol missions, search and rescue operations, and other critical maritime activities effectively and safely.
The SKIPPER 38 PATROL is a closed-type vessel, featuring a fully enclosed cabin that allows the crew to travel safely and comfortably in all weather conditions.
All electronic systems by RAYMARINE were installed by EL MARE, ensuring reliability and operational excellence.
