§ 03 — Commuter Class

Passenger Ferries

Subchapter K compliant passenger vessels engineered for high-cycle commuter and tourism routes where uptime and cost-per-seat are the metrics that matter.
§ 01About the Passenger Ferries

Passenger Ferries

Passenger ferries earn their keep on the schedule. We build USCG Subchapter K compliant hulls with a high-cycle commercial drivetrain, ADA-accessible passenger flow, and bow- or side-loading configurations matched to your terminals.

Every detail is specified to keep cost-per-seat low and the vessel in revenue service.
