Sailing This Boat
How do I book a place on this boat?
This phinisi runs as an open trip, so you book a cabin per person on a scheduled departure rather than chartering the whole boat by the day. Choose your dates and cabin class on the matching sailing package.
What’s the route?
She sails the Lombok–Labuan Bajo whale shark and Komodo open-trip itinerary — whale sharks off Sumbawa, Satonda’s crater lake, Manta Point, the Komodo dragons and Padar. Full details are on the open-trip packages.
Is a skipper included?
Always. Every departure sails with a certified captain and full crew. You will never be asked to operate the boat.
The KLM Budi Jaya sails on our scheduled Lombok–Komodo open trips. Pick your dates and cabin class on the matching sailing package, or message the crew and we’ll hold your spot.
We celebrated a birthday on the open deck boat with about twenty friends. Bean bags, fairy lights and a BBQ while the sun went down behind Kelor island — exactly the relaxed evening we wanted. Music system could be a touch louder, but overall wonderful.
