The new electric vessel "Peterhof" of Project "Moscow 2.0", built at the "Emperium" shipyard (part of Sitronics Group) in Otradnoye (Leningrad Oblast), has begun operating sightseeing cruises in Nizhny Novgorod, according to the press service of the Nizhny Novgorod Ministry of Transport.
The vessel accommodates up to 140 people and reaches a speed of 15 km/h — these are optimal indicators to accommodate a large group of guests and take a one-and-a-half-hour river cruise at a comfortable pace. The main feature of the new vessel is a full-fledged restaurant.
Yury Kulikov, General Director of JSC "Vodokhod. Passenger Port", noted that the development of an eco-friendly fleet has become one of the company's priority areas.
Nizhny Novgorod is a city with a rich history, high tourism potential, and unique architectural heritage. Therefore, it is especially important for us to develop a modern river fleet here that is environmentally friendly.
The "Moscow 2.0" series will include six vessels. "Peterhof" is the second diesel-electric vessel, the creation of which was financed by GTLK under the program for updating Russian water transport using funds from the NWF.
