... thanks to meteorologists ...

[Gkikas LGPZ]

After 70 years to her permanent berth (near Athens, Greece), the legendary battleship (B/S) AVEROF sailed again to Thessaloniki, Greece for the celebration of the National Day of October 28th.
As the B/S Averof is THE ONLY surviving heavily armored cruiser of the early 20th century, the decision for the best "time window" was left to meteorologists, who have to find out the best 2 days period with light winds and smoth sea state.
Thanks to weather models, MISSION ACCOMPLISHED !!!
