Dutch boatbuilder Aluminiumjon has delivered Jeanette, a newbuild work barge for the city of Amsterdam.

The six-metre vessel is propelled by a Bellmarine 10kW electric engine with a battery endurance of 15 hours at 2.5 knots.

Jeanette will be used to push small non-self-propelled pontoons and to assist in the maintenance of bridges in Amsterdam's canals.
