Eight years, shaped by hand: the story of how Indonesia's master boatbuilders brought Dunia Baru, a 51-metre Phinisi to life. Bare Hands goes behind the scenes of one of Indonesia's most distinctive charter yachts, following how centuries-old craftsmanship became a contemporary luxury Phinisi. Built by the renowned Konjo boatbuilders of Sulawesi using techniques handed down through generations, Dunia Baru was handcrafted over eight years — from the shaping of immense beams of Ulin ironwood and teak to the elegant interiors and open, light-filled living spaces guests enjoy today. More than the making of a yacht, this is a celebration of Indonesian maritime heritage and the people whose skill and patience built her. For anyone considering a private charter in Indonesia, it reveals what truly sets Dunia Baru apart: an authentic connection to these islands, exceptional craftsmanship, and the comfort of a private home at sea. At Barefoot, Dunia Baru is the Grande Dame of our fleet — a superyacht built for large families and groups who want Indonesia's most remote corners to themselves, in real space and comfort. From Komodo National Park and Raja Ampat to the Spice Islands and Alor, she carries just 14 guests and a crew of eighteen, with every voyage tailor-made around you. ▶ Plan your charter: https://barefoot-yachts-indonesia.com/yachts/dunia-baru/ ✉ Enquiries: info@barefoot-cruising-indonesia.com Subscribe for more private voyages across Raja Ampat, Komodo and the Banda Sea. *Dunia Baru at a glance* 51 m (167 ft) luxury Phinisi superyacht · built 2014, refitted 2019 Up to 14 guests in 7 en-suite cabins · 18 crew, including 2 masseuses Upper-deck master suite (44 sqm) with private terrace and balcony Three decks of living space · teppanyaki dining · library · hot & cold plunge pools Nitrox diving, snorkelling, kayaks, paddleboards, water skis, wakeboard, jet skis Starlink WiFi · 14-zone Sonos sound · cruising Komodo, Raja Ampat, the Spice Islands and beyond Footage courtesy of Dunia Baru Yacht.
