Built in Sulawesi in 2022, the beautiful Indo Master liveaboard was handcrafted from locally-sourced ironwood and teak, and purpose-built by divers for divers. It operates cruises in Indonesia at some of the world's best dive destinations such as Raja Ampat, Triton Bay, the Banda Sea, Halmahera and Komodo.
At 47m long and with a crew of 16, she is the very definition of a large and modern Indonesian Phinisi, with spacious cabins and plenty of relaxation space. The guest cabins accommodate a maximum of 18 guests and consist of double bed and twin bed cabins, as well as a family suite. Each cabin has air-conditioning and a private ensuite bathroom with hot water, and the upper deck cabins have seaviews and balconies. The boat provides a guest laundry service.
On the main deck there is a spacious bar, restaurant, and lounge area, commanding bright ocean views and a great setting for meals. It features comfortable seating, a charging station, and a large flat-screen TV. And of course a dive deck with plenty of space for everyone and, towards the bow, a shaded outdoor lounge area. Up top, there is a huge sun deck, complete with comfortable seating for socialising or relaxing. Kayaks and a massage service are also available.
Dives are conducted from 2 high-powered Zodiacs. The dive deck has 2 heads and freshwater showers, personal storage space for masks and other small equipment items, and is likely to be one of the most spacious and comfortable you will have experienced. Designated areas for charging and preparing camera and video equipment, as well as separate rinse tanks, make it a top choice for underwater photographers and videographers, and a cruise on the Indo Master liveaboard is sure to live long in the memory.
