river and lake lines. Hull type - hysucat* - sharp-chine
hull with catamaran-type contours with a
hyrofoils.
Operating conditions - the vessel can be operated for its
intended purpose all year round on ice-free water, in
hyrofoil
or displacement mode, depending on weather conditions.
Navigation area - pools of category "M", including those on
Lake Baikal. The project provides for the disembarkation of
passengers on an unequipped shore.
The
operation of the vessels is scheduled to begin in July 2023.
The ships
were named Sarma and Selenga in honor of the
Baikal winds and the rivers of the same name flowing into
Baikal.
* Vessel of the Hysucat type is a catamaran with a system of
hydrofoils located in the dimensions of the largest width of
the hull or slightly exceeding it.
Compared to the traditional speedboat of the same speed, the hysucat uses
40% less fuel and carries 8% more payload.
Compared to the traditional hyrofoil
with fixed hydrofoils,
the hysucat can be operated at shallower depths, is less
dependent on overload, has a relative simplicity of the hydrofoils
design, and the situation of not lifting on hydrofoils is
excluded.
