01 — Why motor

Engines, not wind, set the timetable — so more of the day goes to the places you came for.

Shorter crossings leave more time for diving at Menjangan, Nusa beaches or simply lying at anchor.

A professional captain and stewards run the boat. We are a broker comparing motor yachts across operators — not a fleet owner.

Comfort built into the hull

Motor yachts typically give you more room inside and out, with amenities made for long, hot days on the water.

  • Spacious saloons, cabins and sundecks
  • Air-conditioning and entertainment systems
  • Full-service galley, often with a private chef
  • Jet-skiing, paddleboarding and fishing from the boat
  • Access to shallower bays larger ships can’t reach

Browse the 2027 FAQ
Why choose a motor yacht over a sailing yacht?

Speed, comfort and flexibility. Faster transits cover more destinations, the ride is steadier for anyone prone to seasickness, there’s more living space and air-conditioning, and the plan depends less on wind.

Where can a motor yacht charter go?

West Bali National Park and Menjangan Island for diving and snorkelling, the Nusa Islands for cliffs and beaches, and — on longer charters — the Gili Islands and Lombok.

When is the best time to charter?

April to June and September bring warm, stable weather and calmer seas. July and August are dry but busier; October to March can bring rain and choppier water, though charters still run with weather monitoring.
