Hi Chris,
thanks for commenting.
I don’t know about the James Bond film, yet, these vessels are fast, may access
shallow waters, paradoxically clean the river by adding O2 to the water, mix
your fish, etc.
They sure are somewhat Heath-Robinsonesque and not so green, you’re right.
Their pilots are extremely skilled from what I saw, I didn’t witness any
incident nor dogfish-fighting ... ;-).
Pixels of heavy trafic and congestion are coming in part 2 ;-)
Thanks again.
Amities
Philippe
