Not boatyard but for all those like me who have driven from Athens airport to Lefkas in past years -
When I first drove this route some 20 years ago 7 hours was a normal time depending on tractors/hgvs/bead twiddling locals / sheep ect and gradually over the years the time has reduced as large stretches have become motorway .Last January took 4.4 hours admittedly on a Sunday and very happy with that which included a detour trying to access the road to the Rio bridge at Patras through the maze of cones and blinking lights.
I travelled yesterday so Sunday again, picked car up at Athens airport at 12:45 and crossed the bridge onto Lefkas at 1655 .The tolls came to approx 30 euro of which 13 wS fir crossing the Rio bridge . Happy days .
