VESSEL REVIEW | Sinichka – Electric commuter boats designed for Russia’s Moskva River
A series of three new electric monohull commuter ferries have already begun operational sailings on the Moskva River in the Russian capital Moscow.
Built by Russian shipyard Emperium, sister vessels Sinichka , Filka , and Presnya – all named after rivers in Moscow – are being operated by the Moscow Department of Transport and Road Infrastructure Development (Moscow Deptrans). They are the first units of a planned fleet of 20 vessels that will serve the capital city and other nearby communities. The new ferry system will be the water transport system to be operated on the Moskva River in 16 years.
Each vessel has a welded aluminium hull, an LOA of 21 metres, a beam of 6.2 metres, a draught of only 1.4 metres, a displacement of 40 tonnes, and capacity for 80 passengers plus two crewmembers. Seating is available for 42 passengers on each ferry, and the main cabins are also fitted with USB charging ports, wifi connectivity, tables, toilets, and space for bicycles and scooters. The cabin layout can be rearranged to allow the operator to adjust the distances between the seats and to install armrests of varying widths.
An open upper deck is also accessible to passengers and is the only area on each ferry where smoking is allowed.
The ferries are all of modular construction with each ferry’s wheelhouse, main cabin, and other structural elements being built as complete, separate components. This enables the ferries to be easily dismantled for transport to anywhere in Russia by rail and then quickly re-assembled within seven days.
The ferries are also ice-capable. Recently completed operational trials on the Moskva showed that the vessels can also easily navigate under mild winter conditions with broken surface ice, though year-round operations are planned for the entire fleet.
The ferries are each fitted with 500kWh lithium iron phosphate battery packs that supply power to two 134kW motors. This configuration can deliver a maximum speed of 11.8 knots, a cruising speed of just under 10 knots, and a range of 150 kilometres.
Emperium said the transfer of rotation of electric motors to the propeller is carried out by direct drive. As a propulsion installation, a pulling rotary propeller-steering column with double screws is used. The installation of double pulling screws, with similar power, allows an operator to increase the efficiency of the propulsion system to deliver a slightly higher speed or to reduce energy consumption. This arrangement also provides the ferries with enhanced manoeuvrability necessary for navigating in close quarters.
The batteries themselves have projected service lives of 10 to 12 years and are fitted with safety features such as built-in fire extinguishers and gas vents. Quick-disconnect features allow the batteries to be easily removed for replacement or maintenance.
Some of our readers have expressed disquiet at our publication of reviews and articles describing new vessels from Russia. We at Baird Maritime can understand and sympathise with those views. However, despite the behaviour of the country’s leaders, we believe that the maritime world needs to learn of the latest developments in vessel design and construction there.

Moscow River Boat Trips
Moscow river boat trips are your definite choice when it’s hot, sunny, and you’ve seen the city in any other way possible!
Just imagine how cool it is to slowly drift across the beautiful Moscow river banks, enjoying Moscow from a totally different prospective!
The air is fresh, no exhaust pipes around – it’s just you and the city!
The Kremlin, Gorky Park, Cathedral of Christ the Savior and other Moscow sights are yours – no traffic, hassle and crowds around. Once you’re done, you can get off at the nearest stop and continue your tour by feet.
OK, there are basically two types of Moscow river boat trips. One is called “river tram” or “river shuttle”, and the other is more like a cruise.
The shuttle follows a typical route through Moscow river, from “Kievskiy Vokzal” to “Novospasskiy bridge” and back, with several stops in the way. The cruise boats usually do not stop, and the entire trip make take up to two hours.
There are many cruise boat operators, each one has got its own route. You’ll probably travel outside Moscow to enjoy the stunning views of Moscow region, but you’d better check it with the cashier.
Don’t worry – anything will do, especially if you’re in for the first time. You should only check what type of boat it is – if you wish to see Moscow, you probably don’t want to go far outside, and the reverse is true as well. Take your local friends – nothing beats a good company AND they’ll help you out!
Want to know what to expect? Let’s look at the typical Moscow river boat trips route:
Very pretty by itself, Kievskiy Vokzal was reconstructed a couple of years ago. A starting point for most Moscow river boat trips, it’s got great exterior and “Evropeiskiy” shopping mall right next to it. River cruise or no river cruise, but you should really spend there some time. No better place for Moscow shopping!
See the MSU?
Ahh, such a beauty! In summer, the hills turn entirely green, and you can clearly see the building of Moscow State University rising straight to the skies. You’ll also see grass-covered beaches filled with bathing Muscovites. Yep, the summer in “cold Russia” can be really hot!
…and if you pay attention, you will also see the towers of Moscow Inetrnational Business Center rising up to the skies from one of the banks.
Continuing with Moscow river boat trips. Not much to say about “Frunzenskaya Quay” except it’s a home to several Soviet-style buildings, the biggest one being the Joint Staff. Boy it’s huge! In addition, there’re several “swimming restaurants” that’ll serve you a great meal!
The place was full with all kinds of rides. Now many of them are removed.
This place is Russian “Disneyland”. Don’t be surprised when you see a space shuttle – it’s called “Buran”, and was the first of a kind in Russia.
Unfortunately, it was also the last one. When Perestroika began, the Soviet space program was severely cut, and “Buran” returned to hangar to be utilized later.
Don’t worry, you can take a picture of it – Russian KGB is on vacation, too!
Many say it destroys the looks of the city. Well, it’s really big for sure! Stunning when you see it for the first time. Can’t say I’m a big fan of it, but then again – I ain’t a fan of Peter the Great, either, but that’s a long story. In short – definitely take a couple of pictures!
Sounds soooo communist, right? Don’t mind the name – these guys make the tastiest Russian chocolate I’ve ever eaten! Nothing compares to “Alenka” chocolate bar – it’s that little girl in a headscarf on the banner. Tell me about addiction!
Built in 1860, it was lately destroyed by comrade Stalin. To show everyone the “new”, “free” Russia, Bolsheviks built a swimming pool right on the ruins of the church! Fortunately, the new Russian government allowed its restoration, and the cathedral was re-opened in 2000. It’s the tallest Eastern Orthodox church in the world!
Passing the Kremlin
So magnificent, so…Russian! You’ll see the State Kremlin Palace, Archangelsky Cathedral and even Ivan the Great Bell Tower!
You’ll also have a glance at St. Basil’s Cathedral, but that’s just a sneak preview. To really see the Kremlin, set your foot on the shore, check your camera batteries and storage, take a deep breath and walk inside. It’s an entire adventure!
I haven’t covered all of the sights. There’s more to Moscow river boat trips than you read, but that will be our little surprise.

The best time to visit Moscow, Russia is during the summer months of June to August, when the city experiences its warmest weather and longest daylight hours. This is the perfect time to explore the city's famous landmarks such as the Red Square, Kremlin, and St. Basil's Cathedral, as well as take leisurely strolls along the Moscow River or enjoy outdoor events and festivals. Additionally, the city comes alive with vibrant street performances, open-air markets, and lively nightlife during this time. However, if you prefer a winter wonderland experience, visiting Moscow during the winter months of December to February offers the chance to witness the city covered in a beautiful layer of snow and experience the magical atmosphere of the festive season.
