Блэкберри

“Блэкберри” is a Venetian-style leisure motorboat for up to 11 guests. The dark hull and wooden finishes are paired with light-coloured seats with diamond stitching. The bow has a separate cushioned area, while the main section has a long U-shaped sofa with a passage through the middle. Behind it is a wide stern platform with 2 soft cushions for relaxing during a stop. A small table can hold light refreshments, and seating along the sides makes conversation easy for the whole group. The boat suits a birthday, gathering of friends, family outing or photo shoot with the city embankments as a backdrop. The gallery shows the overall appearance, layout and both passenger areas.

On board there is a toilet, fridge, heater, a canopy to protect against rain and sun, a music system, blankets, crockery and drinking glasses. The passenger space is open, without a separate enclosed cabin. Boarding is arranged on the Fontanka; the exact pier is confirmed for the chosen trip, as departures are listed by both number 112 and number 64. You can discuss a trip along the central rivers and canals, passage onto the Neva or a route into the Gulf of Finland. For the gulf, weather, water conditions and travel time to reach it are taken into account. The duration determines which sections can be included in the programme. The sequence of stops and passage along particular waterways are agreed subject to water levels and current navigation restrictions.

For the 2026 navigation season, the daytime rate from 06:00 to 23:00 is RUB 17 000 per hour, and the night rate from 23:00 to 06:00 is RUB 18 000 per hour. Standard trips are offered from 1 hour; night departures and the opening bridges usually require at least 2 hours. The minimum duration is confirmed for the specific time. Separate low-, mid- and high-season rates are not specified. The 9 May fireworks, Scarlet Sails, the St Petersburg International Economic Forum and Navy Day are quoted on request. Include the date, boarding time, guest numbers and desired route in your enquiry. If planning a celebration, discuss refreshments, decorations and music in advance. Bringing the boat to another pier, stops and additional services are agreed before the trip. Once confirmed, the meeting point, boat availability and full programme price will be known.

Capacity depends on the event format: banquets or buffet receptions may accommodate fewer guests. The route is agreed with the skipper based on weather and water levels.
