According to him, the company has two hovercraft. They go along the routes Makaryevo - Lyskovo and Vorotynets - Vasilsursk.
Italians noted that the ships are ready for winter. They were refined at the manufacturing plant taking into account last season.
The start of navigation is scheduled for December 1. But the exact date depends on when the ice rises. The Italians explained: at sub-zero temperatures, open-water vessels quickly freeze and work becomes difficult.
