Gondan is building four GRP ‘Eco Fast Ferries’ with a capacity for 350 passengers for Baleària. On November 3, the first one was launched and it is scheduled that this unit will be delivered at the end of the year.
The 28m-long 28-knot wave-piercing vessels have been designed focusing on eco-efficiency, comfort and speed. Solar panels supply the necessary energy for onboard services.
The ferries will have two cutting-edge technology 1,450 hp diesel engines.
These catamarans, which will be finished between the end of this year and the middle of 2018, are designed to be able to operate on the different routes between the Balearic Islands.
