A US builder has launched Waterman, a new hybrid catamaran ferry for Washington State's Kitsap Transit.
The 21- by 7.9-metre hybrid-electric passenger vessel was designed by Glosten in Seattle.
Waterman will serve as a water taxi transporting 150 passengers between the Washington municipalities of Bremerton, Port Orchard, and Annapolis.
