Superferry
Car ferry · operated by Golden Star Ferries

A converted Japanese domestic ferry, now a solid, unglamorous workhorse on Golden Star's Rafina-Paros-Naxos-Mykonos-Tinos run — a decade-old conversion rather than a purpose-built Aegean ferry, and it shows in a slightly dated but perfectly serviceable interior.
Previously sailed as Golden Ferry and Kogane Maru.
