The phinisi is Indonesia's traditional two-masted wooden sailing yacht, built by hand in Bira and Ara (South Sulawesi) using techniques passed down for generations. The phinisi silhouette — twin masts, long sweeping bow, hardwood hull — is on UNESCO's list of intangible cultural heritage. Today's charter phinisi range from compact classic sailing boats to 55 m ultra-luxury yachts.

Luxury phinisi typically run a rotating menu of Indonesian and Western dishes prepared by an onboard chef — beach picnics, chef's tasting nights, in-cabin breakfasts and dietary preferences all handled routinely. Wine and spirits vary by yacht: some run a full curated bar list, others welcome BYO with corkage. Downloadable food and drinks menus are available on individual yacht pages where the brochure PDF is provided.
