Why this yacht

Why Calico Jack works for Komodo

Calico Jack is a 30 m traditional two-masted phinisi with distinctive red sails, built in Sulawesi in 2011–2013. She carries 5 en-suite AC cabins for up to 10 guests plus a crew of 8 with 2 dedicated dive guides and a cruise director. Twin 220 hp Mitsubishi diesels, dual Coltri dive compressors, a new Nitrox system, a full dive deck with rinse tank and 2 kayaks and 2 SUPs make her a serious platform for diving-led private charters. Onboard she has a sundeck with sofa, a covered dining area with communal buffet table and a large forward lounge — laid-back rather than luxury-hotel styling. She primarily runs open dive cruises in Raja Ampat, Cenderawasih Bay, Triton Bay and Banda Sea and is available for private charter in Komodo on request.
