Le Lutèce

Left as a wreck for years, the former fireboat Le Lutèce finds a second life. The original hull and structure were restored first.

A bar takes up the whole upper deck. The deckhouse was widened and topped with a removable superstructure that protects the crew from the elements. The lower deck holds a work and meeting space. The boat was brought up to accessibility standards.

It cruises the Canal de l'Ourcq and the Seine thanks to an innovative hybrid hydrogen-electric drive. Sailing on hydrogen alone, which no boat does yet, is one of the project's main goals.
