The BGV-163 is an updated version of the BGV-155, a vessel that represents the top of the range of high-speed foiler trimarans designed specifically for passenger carrying.

With an optimised passenger + vehicle capacity and speed in the region of 50 knots this concept, applied to Mediterranean traffic for example, would allow some routes to schedule several round trips per day in the peak season.

That means operating possibilities that are comparable with air transportation but with the bonus that costs are kept down to around those of rail transportation!

Again, compared with other types of high-speed vessels, the BGV’s sea-keeping and comfort standards are far superior and sailings are far less dependent on weather conditions.

Transatlantic program based on the new BGV 221 allows nextly valuable other choice to the all aerial travels !
