  • Elli (Greek: Κ/Δ Έλλη II) was a 10,000 ton Greek light cruiser (in Greek Καταδρομικό) named for a naval battle of the First Balkan War in which Greece was victorious. She was the second ship of the Royal Hellenic Navy to bear this name. The first was torpedoed by an Italian submarine in August 1940. Built between 1932-35 at Ansaldo Shipyard in Genoa and commissioned as the RN Eugenio di Savoia. She was ceded to Greece in July 1950 by the Italian government, as part of the war reparations, for the torpedoing of Elli. Since hoisting the Greek Flag in June 1951 she served as the headquarters for the Fleet Commander (Αρχηγός Στόλου), serving also for state visits of King Paul to Constantinople in June 1952; Yugoslavia in September 1955; Toulon, France in June 1956; and Lebanon in May 1958. In 1959 she was moved to Souda Bay, Crete, where she was used as headquarters of the Ionian and Cretan Seas Command. Decommissioned in 1965, she was used as a naval prison ship. Certain naval personnel were detained there during the 1967-1974 junta because of their resistance activities. She was auctioned off in 1973.
