BGV [1] is an independent firm for naval architecture and marine services.
Led by a dedicated team of marine engineers, naval architects and project managers, the international company has developed its unique and worldwide patented HSC design concept in early 2003.
Going from basic design, naval architecture and engineering solutions through classification level design, BGV carries out key projects for high speed commercial, freight and military HSC vessels to turn them into a new and reliable transport reality.
Through the use of research contracts, BGV collaborates with reputable European Institutes, Universities and Consultancies, to produce accurate and reliable engineering based on their state of the art stabilised monohull technology (a variation of the common trimaran configuration).
BGV works closely with shipyards to ensure that their capabilities and practices are compatible with the HSC technology, and is involved throughout the industrial development from the concept design to the construction.

In order to adjust to an existing booming market, the designers of BGV have conceived the HSC P58 Fast Passenger Ferry , a 58 metre passenger version known as High Speed Sea Shuttles (H3S) .
She will shorten travel time and make trips more enjoyable thanks to their superior sea-keeping capacities due to the innovative BGV ship design concept, enabling operations in all weather conditions and all year round.
Frequent regular shuttle services will each time be able to welcome nearly 350 passengers on two comfortable decks at a speed above 35 knots.
