HS THETIS A-307
Crest
The crest depicts an Athenian trireme on the top left section of it and a cluster of a propeller, an anchor and a missile on the lower right section. The trireme is historically linked with the Battle of Salamis, not only because the Greek fleet consisted of ships of the specific type, but also because it took place in the sea region close to the Naval Base. The propeller, the anchor and the missile denote the contribution of the Naval Base to the seaworthiness and combat effectiveness of the Hellenic Warships.

History
HS THETIS raised the Greek Flag on board and was acquired by the Navy on April 9, 1960 in RENDSBURG, Germany where it had been built by KROGUERTUERFTG G.M.B.H on behalf of the American authorities in Europe (NAYSIPLO HAGUE). On May 23, the ship sailed for Greece where it joined the ranks of the Greek Navy, it bears the side number A-307 and the International Call Sign “SZZZ”.
It is built for the installation of metal barriers and is used after the decommissioning of the barriers to carry out maintenance inspection, mooring, and lifting of the lifeboats (buoys) in order to maintain their operational readiness.
