The Ocean Posse fleet is excited to announce our first-ever Tonga Gathering, taking place on July 4, 2026, in beautiful Vava'u, Tonga. This informal sailor-to-sailor gathering will bring together Ocean Posse members and cruising friends for an evening of camaraderie, sea stories, local hospitality, and fleet updates in one of the South Pacific's premier cruising destinations. We are especially pleased to welcome John Martin, renowned weather router and longtime South Pacific weather expert, who will share seasonal insights, routing strategies, and weather patterns for sailors exploring the islands of the South Pacific. John's practical knowledge and decades of forecasting experience have helped countless cruisers make safer and more informed passage decisions throughout the region. Whether you're already in Tonga, planning your next Pacific crossing, or simply looking to connect with fellow adventurers, this gathering promises valuable information, new friendships, and the spirit of exploration that defines Ocean Posse. We look forward to seeing the fleet in Vava'u as we celebrate the cruising lifestyle, share knowledge, and continue the adventure together.

Custom-built by hand to ensure awesome maneuverability and maximum comfort, this VQ60 is in a league of her own for this size bracket. She is an anything-but-mainstream motor yacht. Twin MAN 1200HP coupled with surface drives provide exhilarating performance. The open deck and sun platform provide superlative lounging for up to 23 people which can be accommodated with the on-board icemakers, wine coolers, fridges and several biminis. Spacious sidedecks with high bulwarks allow for simple and safe movement around the deck. More information on our website: https://www.devalk.nl/en/yachtbrokerage/807659/VANQUISH-VQ60.html

Every Liveaboard diving cruise in Raja Ampat we visit local village Arborek. The village of Arborek is fast rising as a pioneer among the 18 beautiful villages in West Papua that have embarked on developing local regulations for community-based marine conservation. With recently claiming the 1st spot in 2015 Provincial village Competition for West Papua , the village of Arborek has gained an outstanding reputation among both the local authority and international community. With a population of only 197, interaction with locals is a stones throw away from a number of Homestay options available on this island. Finding underwater beauty is not so difficult here. Along the Arborek pier, divers can simply plunge into the water and instantly find a most intriguing illumination of the glittering of a gorgonian fan just below the surface. People in Arborek are hospitable and very industrious, creating exceptional handicrafts from sea pandan leaves to make the most of their time each day. Arborek is fascinating both underwater and in the village.
