From Global Access News: VENICE, ITALY: CRUISE VENETIAN LAGOON ON MINUETTO

Now wheelchair users can enjoy the dazzling views of the Venetian Lagoon as they cruise aboard Le Boat's Minuetto (available in March 2010). 


The Minuetto (owned by Le Boat, a self-drive European boating company) sleeps six passengers and uses an internal lifting platform and an adapted wheelchair to transport wheelchair users. To view the Minuetto  layout and photos to determine if it fits your access needs, visit http://www.leboat.com/flotte/mnto
