Might I suggest:

Alt1 ... that the sinking of the ferry SS Herakleion off the coast of Falkonera was one of the worst maritime accidents in Greek history?

I noticed that information is sourced online with Ref #5, and I didn't pull up any copyvio on a check of the ref against the article. — Maile (talk) 22:49, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

I personally like ALT1. It has more of an impact. Proudbolsahye (talk) 00:11, 18 March 2013 (UTC)

Verified date, length, and hook fact. Edited ship name in ALT1 per WP:ITALICS, struck original hook in favour of ALT1. Chamal ^T•C 08:02, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
