“Theofilos back at it”
The Theofilos (ex Abel Tasman) has finally restarted service on 16th of May after 10 months of lay-up and dry-docking. It is expected that she will now stay in Greece for some time as Nel Lines have secured subsidization for the route she is sailing. Theofilos is now 35 years old.
“Theofilos back in service soon”
The Theofilos (Ex Abel Tasman) is due to re enter service on 16/5/09 after several months of lay up and repairs, following her grounding on a reef during the night of 28 June last year. At the time it was unsure if she would ever return to service.
“Sprit of Tasmania helps with fires”
The Tasmanian fire service has sent 28 light tankers across the Bass Strait aboard the Spirit of Tasmania II to assist with the devastating Victorian bush fires. Also 92 fire fights were send. Tasmania has since send anther 62 fire fighters to Victoria.
It is not yet know when the takers will be going home.
