A replica of "Argo", a mythical Greek ship believed to have sailed 3,000 years
ago on a heroic quest from Greece to modern-day Georgia, is seen on a trial run
on May, 10, 2008 in the waters of Pagasitikos Bay in the central Greek port of
Volos. The 28.5-metre (93-foot) wooden ship sails with a crew of 50 rowers. The
replica of the mythical galley of Jason and the Argonauts will travel to
modern-day Georgia to recreate the Quest for the Golden Fleece. The 2,200 km
trip will start on June 07, 2008 and will approach 21 ports, 3 in Greece, 14 in
Turkey and 3 in Georgia with final destination the port of Poti in Georgia.
