About Larks
MV Lucky Star was a ferry previously operated by TransEuropa Ferries (TEF) between 1999 and April 2013 as MV Larkspur. After TEF went bankrupt in April 2013 the ship was taken to Ostend, Belgium where she was laid up. She was sold in December 2013 to an unknown buyer and then sold again to Oilchart, a local bunkering company, for more than E400K. Her name was then shortened to Larks. She briefly served with the Greek ferry operator Egnatia Seaways but after financial issue from within Egnatia she was laid up and was renamed Lucky Star on 1 September 2014 and was registered to Velenio Shipping Co Ltd, Athens, Greece at the same time of her renaming.
