Overview
The CAT 16 is a zero-emission electric catamaran for passenger transport. Due to an efficient hull design, it may operate for long periods between charging. Solar panels provide part of the energy in daytime and the batteries can be charged from an ordinary 3-phase outlet or from a fast DC charger.
The CAT 16 is available as the standard 5.5 m wide model seating up to 60 people and the 7.5 m wide “W” model seating up to 100 persons.
Fully automated CAT 16
Operators can supervise the boat using a Remote Control Center, and the Callboats app is available for customers to call the boat and pay for the ride. Optional features include automatic docking and autonomous driving.
Automatic docking turns the boat and docks without intervention from the captain. It automatically adjusts the gangway height and keeps the boat in position while customers exit and enter. This feature makes ferry operations easy to implement.
With autonomous driving and automatic docking, the captain can move ashore and supervise many boats at the time providing substantial operational savings. The boat can navigate and avoid obstacles using powerful sensing capabilities.
