The statue of Andreas Miaoulis

The bronze statue of Andreas Miaoulis a seaman in the struggle for Independence (1821) and an admiral of the Greek fleet during the first period of the independence, dominates the left bastion of the port of Hydra. Standing up, holding the steering wheel with the one hand and the canoe with the other, Miaoulis (1769-1835), looks at the sea. The statue was erected in 1993 and at the base are the bones of the admiral. The view from the point is excellent.

he seems still on watch for any threat to independence...admire the POV as the point and bastion remind of the prow of a ship..
