Their vision of creating an eco-conscious transport solution for the world’s urban waterways has come to fruition with the support of Décision SA, of Switzerland, a specialist in the development and prototyping of complex composite structures, and Sicomin of France, the leading formulator and supplier of high performance epoxy systems.
SeaBubbles are based on a futuristic hydrofoil design that glides silently above the water when the craft reaches 12 km/h. A clean charging electric drive system converts solar, wind and water power so the vessel does not generate any CO2 emissions.
