*ἐρετης = oarsman
eretin chrnai prhota genesstei before the helmsman (Aristophanes, Hippo, 541) from a cupola, before you take a rudder in your hand, then to pilot and sway the winds.

Contest Information
This unique team building event focuses on the collaborative efforts of teams by fostering coordination and cooperation between the participants. Businesses can enter the contest with up to 20 participants from their organization taking part in the coordinated rowing, which is expected to be a total of 140 rowers inclusive of all groups. The goal is to move the Triiri! By doing so these participants are contributing to the continual success of the no-profit organization for children: "The Smile of the Child".
This team building effort parallels the everyday difficulties and adversities we all experience in life. And, yet, with a positive attitude and team cooperation, we find that no obstacle is
insurmountable.
Following this competition, all teams will have an opportunity to participate in a guided tour of the Floating Maritime Museum "Averof", docked next to Triiri.
The event is in cooperation of the General Staff of the Navy (GEN) and the Ministry of National Defense
The most original team building event ever!

Trieri Olympia
The Triiris of Olympia is a replica of the Athenian Triiris of the 5th century BC, accommodating up to 140 rowers. Based on archaeological evidence and naval engineering principles, in 1987 this replica was constructed and launched on behalf of Greek Navy
In ancient times, oarsmen were free citizens receiving wages and meals and felt honored to be chosen for this employment. These ordinary citizens, participating in a team effort, parallels the everyday difficulties and adversities we all experience in life. And, yet, with a positive attitude and team cooperation, we find that no obstacle is insurmountable
