SS Maximilianos (1837)

SS Maximilianos was the first Greek-built steamship, completed in 1837 at the Poros Naval Shipyard. It was an unarmed, 180-ton steamer used for auxiliary Navy duties and mail services. The Poros Naval Shipyard undertook construction of a large number of ships for the Greek Navy until the 1880s, when Greece's main Naval base was transferred to Salamina.
