I am starting today with the presentation of a number of passenger ships that were doing the North and South Evoikos routes, from Aliveri to Karystos and Kymi, often with stops (or starts) from Rafina. Many were continuing to the northern Cyclades islands.
I presented already the steamship Karystos of 130 tons. http://www.nautilia.gr/forum/showthread.php?t=71540
Another Karystos was named Karystos Togia and was short-lived although much bigger than the first one! She was built in 1869 and had 845 tons. (see http://www.nautilia.gr/forum/showthr...020#post233020)
Kostas (see http://www.nautilia.gr/forum/showthr...026#post233026) was a small ship that seemed to have concentrated on the Southern Evoikos routes all the way to Karystos. She belonged to the Togias family and is often confused with Constantinos Togias! (see tp://www.nautilia.gr/forum/showthread.php?t=71543)
But there was another Constantinos, a small ship belonging to the well known Hatziconstantis Bros Line.
A versatile ship active in the 1910s and 1920s, Constantinos had 213 tons.. Other ships of this Shipping Company in the early 1920 were Athena (468 tons) and Georghios (273 tons). Of course Dafne belonged to them in the 1910s. Constantinos was retired in the middle to late 1920s.
Here are some schedules of Constantinos belonging to Hatziconstantis Bros Line.
On August 18, 1917 she was going from Piraeus to Chalkida, Volos, and Thessaloniki. On September 25, 1919 she was placed in the Piraeus, Patras, Astakos, Mytikas, Leukas, Preveza, Parga, Paxoi, Igoumenitsa and Corfu route

And then on May 29, 1921, she is back to Ionion but now going all the way to Sagiada (the port of Filiates) instead of Corfu
