The AquaCabrio — an excursion vessel with a roof
Enjoy the sun — and be sheltered from the rain in an instant. An excursion attraction that does not depend on the weather.
At modest cost, the AquaCabrio offers what until now only double-deck ships could — and entirely without any loss of view.
At its heart is a novel roof that opens or closes in seconds. In sunshine your guests enjoy an unobstructed view, in rain they are sheltered in an instant — the trip goes ahead in any weather.

The roof opens in seconds: the sheltered saloon becomes a sun deck under the open sky — protected and yet right in the middle of it.
The retractable roof
The AquaCabrio principle is impressively realised on the Grand Bohemia: the eye-catcher is the main deck with its retractable roof, which shelters guests at the bars when it rains — and opens up the sky when the sun is out.
