To ιστορικό ΝΕΡΑΪΔΑ στην Υδρα. Η λεζάντα αναφέρει το 1978 αλλά νομίζω πως το καράβι αποσύρθηκε το 1974 με τη συμπλήρωση της 35-ετίας.
Ας ελπίσουμε πως θα το δούμε μια μέρα να ξαναταξιδεύει στα γνώριμα του νερά.

Allow me to start a new thread about Hydra... there are numerous pictures all around, but she deserves to have also her own site. All these pictures are from the late 1930s to the early 1960s.
First we have a postcard that is dated "in the 1950s" but quiet atmosphere reveals the 1930s.

Then, definitely a mid 1950s photograph

Then we have an older picture of Hydra, dated 1938

And then a favorite one of the entrance to the port of Hydra with Erietta. right? But frankly I do not remember Erietta going that far... Only up to Aghia Marina, Souvala and Aegina. Gentlemen, refresh my memory!

And finally a 1963 picture of Hydra from the second volume of Leonidas Kouvaris' Nea Eikonografimeni Geografia Atlas tis Ellados (New Illustrated Geography and Atlas of Greece, Syropouloi bros and Koumandareas, publishers, Panepistimiou 44, Athens)

Nicholas, are you sure the third postcard is from 1938? The reason I ask is that being almost a Hydriot, and having memories of Hydra from my childhood in the early sixties, the postcard looks like it was taken sometime in the late fifties. Two reasons: Firstly, the brakewater dock built for yachts (across the entrance of the port) was built in the late fifties, and secondly Hydra even after the WW2 period had no birthing docks but a bebble beach in port and tenders would come to meet the ship and carry passengers and cargo. I will check my historical archives on Hydra with pictures dated from the 30's and on and revert to the subject.

Please check your files. I am not a Hydriot. The back of the card says 1938. Could it be 1958?

And not the Erietta... I guess you are right.
