O fabricante de motores marítimos Yanmar foi escolhido pela empresa de Matteo Tiepolato, que opera no serviço de barco táxi ( Aquamarina) em Veneza desde 2008, especificamente pela sua reputação em confiabilidade, eficiência e baixas emissões, tornando-os perfeitamente adequados ao seu negócio e aos canais estreitos da cidade histórica . Também é o primeiro barco táxi em Veneza a ser equipado com um motor Yanmar.
Outro grande benefício do motor YANMAR é a ausência de vibrações, importante no transporte de clientes de prestígio. O 4LV150 proporciona uma boa experiência ao passageiro com vibrações mínimas do motor, uma navegação confortável para desfrutarem da beleza de Veneza. O motor de 4 cilindros e 2,8 L está em conformidade com os requisitos ambientais locais.
Com os preços atuais dos combustíveis, a economia também é fundamental “…Tenho total confiança no motor que tem um funcionamento económico e me dá paz de espírito” diz Matteo, “Adequa-se ao serviço de barco-táxi, mas eu recomendaria a qualquer pessoa para fins de lazer também .”
YANMAR are making waves in the waterways of Venice, with the first installation of an engine for Matteo Tiepolato and his traditional wooden taxi boat Aquamarina.
The leading manufacturer of marine engines was chosen by Matteo, who has been operating a water taxi service in Venice since 2008, specifically for their reputation in reliability, efficiency and low emissions making them perfectly suited to his business and the narrow canals of the historic city. It also marks the first water taxi in Venice to be fitted with a YANMAR engine.
Another big benefit from the YANMAR engine is the lack of vibrations, important when transporting prestigious paying customers. The 4LV150 provides an enhanced passenger experience with minimal vibrations from the engine, driving a comfortable ride and leaving the occupants to enjoy the beauty of Venice without any distraction from the 4-cyclinder, 2.8L engine, all whilst remaining in compliance with the local requirements.
Equally, when entering the more open waters of the lagoons and exclusive private island resorts surrounding the city, the smooth acceleration and responsiveness of the YANMAR engine allows the boat to immediately enter onto a plane whether there are 1 or 10 people onboard.
With current fuel prices, economy is also key “I have complete faith in the engine which is economical to run and gives me peace of mind” says Matteo, “It suits the water taxi service, but I would recommend to anyone for leisure purposes also.”
Furthermore, the YANMAR engines durability to see the operator through long operating periods means that he hasn’t had a single day unplanned downtime in the 3 years it’s been fitted to his boat.
