Focus on Passenger Vessels
Published on

This month's focus on the passenger vessel sector includes reviews of four ferries and one large river tour boat. The newbuilds are slated for operation in a range of geographical settings, from the fjords of Norway and the Baltic Sea to the Yangtze River and the inter-island routes of the central and southern Philippines.

Ferries • Ro-Pax • Marine Tourism • Cruise • River/Lake Operations

Low-emission propulsion is also highlighted by the vessel examples in operation in Germany and China, while the new Philippine-owned ferry boasts an efficient inverted bow design, making it the first newbuild passenger vessel with such a key feature to be operated in the country's waters.

The global passenger vessel sector continues to keep up with changing times, as readers of Baird Maritime will see this week and in all the ones to follow.
