Goboat åbner i Odense: Bliv kaptajn på din egen solcelledrevne picnicbåd. Skriver Fyens Stiftstidende den 23. april 2021.

Havnen: På havnen lige ved Promenadebyen kan man fra 23. april stævne ud i Goboats - og det er ifølge firmaets direktør en oplagt lokation at åbne på.

- Odense er en drømmeby at åbne op i for Goboat. De sidste forberedelser er i fuld gang med fokus på at få styr på sikkerheden, at skabe de bedste oplevelser for de kommende sejlende og at styrke samarbejdet med myndigheder, lokale virksomheder og de andre brugere af havnen. Corona gør ikke processen nemmere. Men vores erfaringer fra København og Aalborg fra 2020 viser, at Goboat en af de få oplevelser, hvor smittefaren er meget lav, fordi det foregår udenfor i små grupper - hver båd har maksimalt plads til otte personer, siger CEO i Goboat, Anders Ekelund Mørck.

Hos Goboat har man siden etableringen i 2014 haft en helt klar mission om at åbne vandet op for alle, så en sejltur ikke kun er en oplevelse forbeholdt de få.

Med eldrevne både, der hverken kræver sejlerbevis eller nogen yderligere sejlererfaring, gør Goboat det let for alle at sejle deres både. Det eneste krav er, at du skal være fyldt 18 år for at agere styrende kaptajn på båden.

Hver båd har et picnicbord i midten og plads til otte personer. Ombord er der redningsveste til både store og små passagerer, og de sejlende får instruktioner digitalt og ved sejlturens start om regler og adfærd på vandet.

Coronasikkert
By- og kulturrådmand Christoffer Lilleholt hilser havnens nyeste beboere velkomne.

- Jeg vil gerne have en fortsat udvikling af Odense Havn med flere rekreative aktiviteter på og omkring vandet. Her passer Goboat perfekt ind, og derfor har jeg været meget interesseret i, at vi fik deres både til byen. Der har været et utrolig godt samarbejde mellem Goboat og forvaltningen, som betyder, at vi får bådene på vandet i god tid før sommeren, så der bliver rig mulighed for en sejltur på corona-sikker vis. Jeg er sikker på, at det bliver en kæmpe gevinst for byen og havnen, at alle - odenseanerne og turister - kan opleve Odense fra vandsiden gennem eldrevne både.

Allerede nu er det muligt at skrive sig op, hvis man ønsker at være blandt de første, der sejler bæredygtigt rundt i Odense Havn fra 23. april. Book din båd på goboatodense.dk.

Bådene sejler fra Tysklandskaj 3.

English: Goboat opens in Odense: Become a captain on your own solar-powered picnic boat. Writes Fyens Stiftstidende on 23 April 2021.

The harbor: From the 23rd of April, you can meet Goboats at the harbor right next to the Promenadebyen - and according to the company's director, this is an obvious location to open.

- Odense is a dream city to open up for Goboat. The final preparations are in full swing with a focus on managing safety, creating the best experiences for future sailors and strengthening cooperation with authorities, local companies and the other users of the port. Corona does not make the process easier. But our experiences from Copenhagen and Aalborg from 2020 show that Goboat is one of the few experiences where the risk of infection is very low, because it takes place outside in small groups - each boat has a maximum of eight people, says CEO of Goboat, Anders Ekelund Mørck .

At Goboat, since its establishment in 2014, it has had a clear mission to open up the water to everyone, so that a sailing trip is not just an experience reserved for the few.

With electric boats that require neither a sailing license nor any additional sailing experience, Goboat makes it easy for everyone to sail their boats. The only requirement is that you must be 18 years of age to act as the captain of the boat.

Each boat has a picnic table in the middle and room for eight people. On board, there are life jackets for both large and small passengers, and the sailors receive instructions digitally and at the start of the sailing trip about rules and behavior on the water.

Corona safe
City and Culture Councilor Christoffer Lilleholt welcomes the harbor's newest residents.

- I would like a continued development of the Port of Odense with more recreational activities on and around the water. Goboat fits in perfectly here, which is why I have been very interested in getting their boats to town. There has been an incredibly good collaboration between Goboat and the management, which means that we get the boats on the water well before the summer, so there will be plenty of opportunities for a sailing trip in a corona-safe way. I am sure that it will be a huge benefit for the city and the harbor that everyone - the people of Odense and tourists - can experience Odense from the water side through electric boats.

It is already possible to sign up if you want to be among the first to sail sustainably around the Port of Odense from 23 April. Book your boat at goboatodense.dk.

The boats sail from Germany Quay 3.
