Enjoy a pleasant and quiet crossing between the banks of the Mondego River on the Carlos Simão, an electric boat for public passenger transport. The Carlos Simão is a very light catamaran, transportable by road, built in composites and made in accordance with the Portuguese directive.
It is a sustainable and self-sufficient vessel, ideal for rivers, swamps, and inland waters. It is an electro-solar boat, 100% ecological in which it is possible to make the journey without the usual engine noise. It is a ship propelled by two 20Kw electric motors that drive two lines of axes with fixed-blade propellers.
This catamaran was awarded to Drassanes Dalmau through a public tender of the Municipal Chamber of Figueira da Foz (a picturesque Portuguese coastal town).
It is a ship designed to be operational 365 days a year. It is a silent boat, very bright and comfortable inside, adapted for passengers with reduced mobility. It is a catamaran designed so that the passenger is in contact with the sea, with large windows that give a wide and clear view of the horizon for a calm and pleasant trip.
