SEACAT

Hybrid Catamaran Water Taxi Design

SEACAT is a hybrid water taxi developed by TVY Marine with design by Formeta Design. The project explores a smaller-scale option for passenger travel on Istanbul’s Bosphorus.

The catamaran configuration creates deck space within a compact vessel. Passenger accommodation and the exterior were considered around the needs of short urban journeys, alongside the technical requirements of the hybrid propulsion proposal.

SEACAT connects marine product design with an urban transport question: how water routes can offer another way to move through a city shaped by congestion and geography.
