Phinisi Charter

Lasha — VVIP Phinisi Charter Raja Ampat

A 52.5-metre Buginese phinisi in ulin and teak across four decks — 10 en-suite cabins for up to 26 guests, a dedicated dive deck, and a top-deck jacuzzi. Departs Sorong / Waisai.

Lasha is a traditional Buginese boat charter crafted from ulin and teak wood, spanning 52.5 meters across four spacious decks. At 466 gross tons and driven by a 750HP Weichai engine, Lasha has the range and endurance for extended cruising through the remote reefs of Raja Ampat. She hosts up to 26 guests across 10 private en-suite cabins, from Deluxe to Master Suite. A capable, well-built Raja Ampat liveaboard for those who take their itinerary seriously.

Lasha offers 10 air-conditioned cabins, each with an en-suite bathroom and hot shower. The Master Suite adds a private jacuzzi bathtub and balcony for those wanting extra comfort on a longer Raja Ampat passage. A Dive Deck on the main level serves divers throughout the trip. The upper deck holds an indoor dining room and bar lounge, while the Top Deck features a shared jacuzzi and sun deck — ideal for unwinding between dives at Blue Magic, Cape Kri and the reefs of Misool.

Lasha also runs Komodo seasons, making her one of the few VVIP phinisi available for a Raja Ampat to Komodo crossing on a single vessel.
