This ship Alexandros was built as the yacht Isa in 1877. She must have been renamed after 1916 when the first Alexandros was lost http://www.nautilia.gr/forum/showthread.php?p=226518#post226518
For the record, Alexandros was built as the yacht Isa in 1877 at the Black & Noble shipyards in Montrose, Scotland.
She had 251 tons, a length of 44.5 m and a width of 6.1 m. Her nominal speed was 13 knots.
She was renamed Monarina in 1891 and then Limni, I assume under Greek owners. She became Alexandros around 1920.

Alexandros was bought by P. Makris of the Mikrasiatiki Atmoploia and had schedules in southern Turkey and the Dodecanissos between 1916 and the very early 1920s. Here is a schedule from December 18, 1919 to Ikaria, Samos, Leros, Kalymnos, Kos, Symi, Rhodes, Kastellorizo, and Makri (today's Fethiye) which until 1923 was a major Greek center.

After the Asian Minor catastrophe, Alexandros was moved immediately to Greece and scheduled for the Evoikos route as well as the near Cyclades!

September 16, 1922
In 1923 she was sold sold to the Pandelis Bros and moved to Thessaloniki to concentrate on the Chalkidiki route and the service of all the new Greek communities that had been built with and by refugees in the area.
