The 2025 sightseeing and excursion navigation season has ended in St. Petersburg. On November 10, Neva Travel Company completed its final voyages on the Neva River, closing the summer season, which actively utilized catamarans of projects 04580 Kotlin and 04710 Sommers.
A total of five high-speed and two excursion/sightseeing vessels were operated on the routes, built at the Sredne-Nevsky Shipbuilding Plant (SNSZ) of the USC Group with the support of the State Transport Leasing Company (GTLK) state leasing program for water transport.
Kotlin catamarans, 32 meters long and 8.7 meters wide, are designed for 200 passengers. They develop an operational speed of about 26 knots and can reach 30 knots. The vessels are adapted to the waters of St. Petersburg and the Gulf of Finland: low bridges, minimal wave formation, and comfortable sailing ensure convenience for tourists. Six catamarans of the series were built in 2023-2025 specifically for Neva Travel.
Sommers excursion and sightseeing catamarans are designed for 147 passengers and serve routes around the islands and forts of Kronstadt. In October 2025, the third catamaran in the series was delivered, which will enter service in 2026. The new vessels expand the city's tourism opportunities, providing safe and comfortable voyages for residents and visitors of St. Petersburg.
