Tony was built with a simple goal in mind: to make urban water transport safer, more efficient, and more comfortable. The ferry was taken to the Bassin de la Villette in Paris, where it successfully demonstrated its autonomous features to local officials, transport operators, and others from the industry. 

Over 50 passengers had the opportunity to experience firsthand how our ferry addresses real urban mobility needs. We were glad to see how well the ferry performed and appreciated the positive feedback, it is encouraging to see people respond to the potential of automated inland water transport.
