Mawan is a favourite dive site in the central area of Komodo, it has great coral, a good mix of macro and larger creatures and is quite a shallow easy dive. But the main attraction is of course the Manta !! We regularly see multiple Manta here, unto 20 at times mostly gathered around a cleaning station at just 5 metres depth !! Great place to get amazing videos and photos of these amazing creatures !!

1998 ALUBAT ONVI 43 French sailing yacht walkthrough For Full-Length Video – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4M-f6tPZ4UA The Ovni range of alloy built, lift keel cruisers have built an enviable reputation as durable, “go anywhere” blue water cruisers. Arguably the lifting keel allows them to explore waters out of the reach of normal cruising yachts. Bought to fulfill a long-held blue water cruising ambition. YCHOU III is a 1998 Alubat Onvi 43, and the seller is the second owner of the boat. YCHOU III was purchased in France and has sailed the Mediterranean, South of France, across the Atlantic, Caribbean, Bahamas, east coast of the USA, New York Island Sound, and Florida where it currently resides. The boat was bottom painted in mid-2021 where the lift pump for the keel was also serviced. Standing rigging was replaced in 2014 prior to its Atlantic crossing. New Air Conditioner installed in 2021.
