Liveaboard Adventures

Dive Damai’s newest vessel: MSY Damai II, was constructed in Tanjung Bira, South Sulawesi, by Pak Hadji Baso. Pak Hadji Baso is one of the most respected master boat builders in the traditional Indonesian boat building community of Bira and was the builder of Dive Damai’s first vessel, MSY Damai I. MSY Damai II has a deck length of 40 meters and a beam of 9 meters at its widest point. It is being built to an uncompromising standard and fitted out with all the latest diving, navigation and safety equipment to ensure that the level of service appreciated on their first vessel is maintained and, where possible, improved upon. Boasting three generators, water makers, plenty of fuel and fresh water storage and a centralized marine air-conditioner, the vessel will feature two double-bed stern staterooms and four below deck cabins.

The MSY Damai was built in Tanjung Bira, South Sulawesi, by Pak Hadji Baso, the most prestigious builder in the area. The collaboration of traditional skills and experience with the years of experience in the Indonesian liveaboard diving industry has created a remarkable vessel.

Living aboard Dewi Nusantara is as close to a five star experience as is possible in the faraway corners of the Indonesian archipelago. With an overall length of 57 meters, the three masted topsail schooner moves with grace and stability that only larger sailing vessels can offer. There are eight spacious air-conditioned staterooms, that can be adapted to either twin or double use, each with its own en suite bathroom. The master and commanders’ cabin aft is the size of a large hotel suite. With her state of the art diving equipment Dewi Nusantara has become the ultimate liveaboard diving platform in Indonesia. Her discreet and attentive Indonesian crew of fifteen is complemented by three dive-masters who all have a long experience in the area.
