    About This Vessel

    Jofiel is a 20-metre traditional ironwood phinisi configured for private leisure and diving charters in Komodo National Park. The current vessel inventory is limited to seven guests across three ensuite cabins, giving the boat a deliberately small-group setup. The operator publishes a dedicated dive platform and tender alongside leisure cruising facilities.

    The physical cabin layout is one middle-deck double cabin, one lower-deck double cabin and one lower-deck cabin with a double bed plus a single berth. All three cabins have air conditioning, ensuite bathrooms and hot/cold showers. The middle-deck room has the strongest panoramic outlook from its balcony area.

    For diving, the operator and dive program publish guided scuba activity with dive guide support, tanks, weights and belts. Safety equipment listed on the vessel includes emergency raft, life jackets, fire extinguishers, first-aid kits, oxygen set, parachute signal and ring buoys. Navigation includes Garmin GPS, marine maps, binoculars and radio communication.

    Jofiel is treated as private-charter inventory because no current fixed shared departure with a payable per-person fare was verified from the primary price source. The whole-vessel price uses the current Deluxe-category charter reference, while the per-person starting value is the full-boat charter divided by the seven-guest capacity.
