They therefore took a collaborative approach to the design of the ferry, with Incat’s project team and Buquebus’ design team working together from the planning stages to ensure the vessel reflected Buquebus’s brand. “To ensure that every detail aligns with Buquebus’s operational needs and brand expectations, the Buquebus team conducted several site visits to Incat’s Hobart shipyard, allowing it to inspect progress and refine elements of the design,” says Cooper. “This approach helped guarantee that the interior fitout, material selections and functional layouts reflected Buquebus’s vision for a flagship vessel that blends performance, style and customer satisfaction.” The comfort and enjoyment of guests has been a central consideration for both the design and outfitting teams during the construction of China Zorrilla, according to Cooper. “Incat’s dedicated interior fit-out team has drawn upon decades of experience in ferry construction to deliver exceptional standards of workmanship,” he says. “Every aspect of the interior, from seating configurations and lighting to signage and flooring, has been considered with comfort, durability and aesthetics in mind.” China Zorrilla is under construction by Australian shipbuilder Incat Tasmania Photo: Incat Tasmania “ The passenger deck is a showcase of Incat’s signature approach to comfort and innovation”
