Asmara is much more than just the name of our daily diving boat in Komodo. In Indonesian, Bahasa as the locals call it, Asmara means “love,” and that’s exactly how we feel about our work. This 18-meter boat has been designed specifically for diver comfort and safety so that you can enjoy the best Komodo tours. It was constructed by a fantastic team of local woodworkers (including our captain, Basir!) and you will see the love and care that they put into every detail. The boat is set up for a total of 14 divers plus staff and crew. You will be safe from the elements in our comfortable, enclosed cabin where coffee/tea are always available. On the roof, you will be able to take in the views of the Komodo National Park while lounging either in the sun or under the shade structure. Remember to bring coral safe sunscreen or we have local, sustainable sunscreen available for purchase in our shop. We also want you to experience a more environmentally friendly and responsible way of diving. The ocean and its health is our business so you won’t find single-use plastics anywhere on our boat or in our shop. We also offer vegetarian food as our primary meal option on our day trips in order to lower our environmental impact (other dietary needs can be met). Our goal in teaching is to transform you into a better and more conscious diver, always with safety as a priority.

It was two years ago in May. I was teaching an instructional passage, and we were in Bermuda waiting for weather to allow us to continue north to Newport. Of course, we knew that the America’s Cup was happening. Still, the absolute mind-boggling spectacle of seeing those boats…..doing that! As we entered the outer bay near Hamilton, there, right in front of us, was Oracle, sitting in the water, getting coached up by her chase boats. Now not more than 40-50 yards away, the crew trimmed in the wing sail. The boat lurched a little, started moving….then bam! Like the Starship Enterprise in the Star Trek movies, it popped up, onto its’ foils, and was off at nearly 40 knots. Warp speed Scotty!
