Mouettes Genevoises Navigation is a private[2] water bus operator in Geneva, Switzerland, operating four lines across the western end of Lake Geneva. A member of the integrated Unireso fare network, its head office is in Geneva.[3] The modern company was founded in 1897 by the merger of three boat operators.[4]
Name
[edit | edit source]"Mouettes" translates to "gulls". The origin of this name is not well understood, but may date from an era of many boat companies, each named after different birds.[5] The boats today are usually painted in yellow and red, the heraldic colors of Geneva.
