Launching the GREENBOAT
ORION and Dubourdieu shipyard launched Greenboat this Thursday, a pinnace 18m passenger made entirely of wood, conceived and designed by ORION to transport 57 people on the Bassin d' Arcachon. The innovative diesel and electric hybrid propulsion should help navigate 12nds cruise (thermal mode) or navigate around sensitive areas (Bird Island, houses of Cap Ferret, the Bassin ports , etc.) without sound, 100% electric.
The painting of the hull yet is to be finalized, but some of the people present on the day of the launch have already seen the ship’s lines fit elegantly into the port of Larros.
