Baleària unveiled Spain’s first zero-emission electric ferry designed to carry passengers and cargo along the Ibiza-Formentera route. The vessel, named Cap de Barbaria, touched water for the first time at Astilleros Armón Vigo, where construction took place. Measuring 82 meters in length and 15.5 meters in width, the ship is capable of speeds up to 14 knots and is slated to begin service in early summer 2023, connecting Ibiza and Formentera in about an hour. It carries 240 linear meters of cargo capacity and can accommodate up to 390 passengers. The design features a unique bidirectional bow and stern to streamline loading and unloading operations.
