The fleet
Every vessel we curate, motor and sail, with specifications.
Motor yacht · range and stability
Cover more water, arrive rested.
A crewed motor yacht trades sail for range and stabilisers — more dive sites in a week, and a hull that stays level while you sleep.
In short
A motor yacht reaches more of Raja Ampat in the same week: 12–16 knots under power, active fin stabilisers, and no waiting on wind.
- 12–16 knots cruising, with 1,500–2,000 nautical miles of range
- Active fin stabilisers — a level hull at anchor and under way
- Ensuite, air-conditioned cabins across the fleet
- Reaches remote sites a sailing rig would need another day for

Neither is better. The right hull depends on how many nights you have and how far south you want to get.
On board
What the extra range buys
Speed is not the point on its own — it is what a faster hull lets you fit into the same week.
On a four-night charter the difference is modest. From seven nights up, it decides how much of the archipelago you actually see.
Aboard
Built for distance
Seven to nine ensuite cabins, fully air-conditioned, with the deck space an expedition hull allows.
A tender for every dive, water toys stowed aft, and a crew that includes a chef and certified dive guides on every charter.
