🚢 Introducing Incat’s Next-Generation Sustainable Ferry Construction is well progressed on Incat’s newest 78-metre hybrid electric ferry with the vessel set to be ready for operation in the first half of 2026. This ship represents the next evolution in Incat’s electric ferry range, with flexible propulsion options – fully electric, hybrid, or generator-assisted – it offers unmatched versatility for operators transitioning to sustainable operations.

🚢 Lifting the Lifts 🚧 ⬆️ The passenger lifts that will connect all three decks of the world’s largest electric ship – ensuring maximum accessibility - have been craned onto Hull 096. And in true 096 fashion, these aren’t just any lifts – they’re the largest we’ve ever installed on a vessel. Getting them in place took some serious planning, including removing a section of the roof from our main production hall to make it happen. But as always, our crews got the job done! 👏🔧 37 days until launch!

🚢 49 DAYS UNTIL LAUNCH! ⚡ Hull 096 continues to make strides at the shipyard, with work progressing on every section of the vessel as this game-changing electric ferry moves closer to hitting the water. Stay tuned as we power towards launch day on May 2nd!
