Description

Four men aboard George Georgiou's sponge diving exhibition boat at the Tri-city Suncoast Festival in 1961. John Georgiou operated his first sponge boat, the Plastiras, from 1947 to 1952. He then began to charter his second boat, the Aspasia, and gave sponge diving exhibitions with the Plastiras while the Aspasia was in the Gulf. His son George later became involved in the family business.
