Overview

SeaBridge USA, Inc. intends to bring scheduled, long-distance coastal ocean passenger and freight ferry service to the United States with a plan to operate high-speed ships transporting cars, trucks, trailers and buses traveling along America’s coasts, beginning on the East and Gulf coasts and eventually reaching the West Coast. Our services will help reduce highway and rail congestion by offering highway and rail users an attractive, practical alternative for long distance trips with an innovative marine highway which will bypass some of the most overcrowded interstates in the country. We will do this profitably in a manner sensitive to the environment.

• Proven Model – SeaBridge is adapting a well-established, sustainable operating model used widely in Europe, Asia and the Far East.
• Fast and Fuel Efficient – SeaBridge and its partners have developed a ship design that is faster and more fuel efficient than conventional ships.
• Environmentally Sound – SeaBridge intends to pursue innovation to minimize its carbon footprint and all but eliminate emissions.
• Moves Passengers and Freight – SeaBridge is adding a new type of marine highway to transport passengers and their cars as well as trucks and freight.
• Timely and Cost-Effective – SeaBridge services will help the country meet already identified national economic priorities for jobs, reduced congestion and environmental innovation by adding new capacity to our highway system in far less time and at far less cost than all other alternatives.

Virtually all knowledgeable industry and government experts recognize that, despite the current economic downtown, a transport capacity crunch of unprecedented proportions looms just over the horizon. It is as big a national challenge as energy independence and health care reform. SeaBridge can add substantial new transport capacity by adding marine highway bypasses to the increasingly congested coastal highway network.
