Short description
Since you will draw your own conclusions, we will try to present only the facts. So, "Two Capitals" is a motor ship, which was redrawn from the former "Anatoly Papanov". It was built one of the last in a series of large ships in 1961. A total of 50 ships of this project were launched. So far, they are doing their job very well. Despite the fact that they were originally assigned to various ports of the Volga, the design also took into account the ability to pass through the rather narrow White Sea-B altic Canal.
“Two Capitals” is a motor ship, which is relatively small in size. On the one hand, this has a good effect on maneuverability, and on the other hand, it limits designers, forcing them to lower the level of comfort and capacity. However, the reconstruction made it possible to greatly change the situation. Initially, the ship was designed for 340 passengers, and could carry up to 1000, in a sitting position. Today, the number of cabins has been greatly reduced, due to which living conditions have been improved. Now 182 tourists are accepted on board at the main places.
Characteristics of the ship
As already mentioned, the ship can take 182 passengers to the main places. A three-deck beautiful liner calls to go on a trip. The total length of the ship is 95 meters, width - 14 meters. That is, the shipcompact enough to fit in tight spaces and canals. Displacement 1550 tons.
The ship is slow (it has a speed of 24 km/h), but for a pleasure boat, this is more of a plus than a minus. A light breeze and the murmur of water overboard bring peace and tranquility.
Conditions on board
Today "Two Capitals" is a modern, comfortable ship equipped with modern navigation equipment. There are a large number of cabins on board, among which everyone will choose for himself what suits him best. Starting from the economy class and ending with the "luxury" category. All of them are equipped with necessary furniture, household appliances and bathrooms. For the most demanding guests there are luxurious panorama cabins.

There is a sink with hot and cold water, two single sofas, a table and chairs, a wardrobe and a TV. Comfortable A+ rooms are located on the main deck.
