Extra info:
On March 23, 2015, while Highspeed 5 was docked at Drapetsona for modification works and inspections, a fire broke out on board that resulted in the death of the chief electrician and the destruction of her bridge and upper decks.

In September 2015, the vessel was towed to Fincantieri shipyards in Trieste, where she underwent extensive repairs. During them, the upper car deck was substituted with a passenger lounge, increasing her capacity to 1160 passengers.

After she was fully rebuilt and renovated, she was renamed Highspeed 7 (as the company wanted to forget the tragic accident the ship suffered under the name Highspeed 5)
