Description

Rhône

Belle Epoque - paddle steamboat

The last paddle steamer built entirely in Switzerland, it is equipped with a unique steam engine with automatic pressure lubrication, requiring covers over the crankshaft and eccentrics. These were originally in metal but were replaced 2011 by a Plexiglas model allowing passengers to see, as on the other boats, the rhythmic movements of the engine.  The RHONE is appreciated in summer for its largely open upper deck that is to be retained in its future general renovation.
