| 摘要： | The 48'×13.8', 12-passenger Kvit-bjorn (Polar Bear) was launched on May 2. A Swedish collaboration between Volvo Penta, Marell Boats AB, and Hurtigruten Svalbard, the vessel was designed for Arctic exploration. It offers sightseeing tours in Svalbard during the high season (May-October). The first of its kind hybrid-electric vessel, Kvitbj0rn is powered by Volvo Penta twin D4-320 DPI Aquamatic hybrid solution engines. The boat has a top speed of 32 knots, a cruising speed of 25 knots and a range of 500 nautical miles. The complete power drivetrain solution for the vessel is based on the Volvo Penta D4/D6 Aquamatic DPI package. "The difference from a traditional boat is the feeling of silence," said Tore Hoem, adventures director at Hurti- gruten Svalbard. "In electric mode, you can hear the sound of the glacier ice in the water, the breath of walruses - it will allow us to offer a truly unique experience to our customers. Enabling the optimal mix of low-speed, silent cruising, and the ability to cover a lot of distance for the three- to four-hour duration of the tour. We look forward to the experience of driving it - and expect our guests will be just as excited by the silent experience on board." |
