The vessel offers expansive decks and lounge areas dressed in plush Sunbrella fabrics, an open galley with Teppanyaki grill, plus a bounty of water toys—jet skis, kayaks, paddleboards, a sea sailboat—all curated for play and exploration . Her design honors the UNESCO-recognized phinisi tradition while embracing modern comfort, making her an ideal private yacht charter Indonesia platform for those seeking heritage, luxury, and meaningful connection.
