Tiger Blue is a 34-metre traditional Indonesian phinisi yacht offering sailing expeditions through the remote islands of the Indonesian archipelago, including Raja Ampat, Komodo National Park, Alor, Sumbawa and many more locations.
Commissioned in 2007 by its founding family and welcoming guests since 2009, Tiger Blue remains a family-run vessel now managed by the second generation.
Tiger Blue has been exploring some of Indonesia’s most pristine and remote destinations, making her one of the longest-established phinisi yachts cruising Raja Ampat and Komodo. Built in Bira, Sulawesi using traditional Indonesian boatbuilding techniques, the phinisi blends maritime heritage with modern comfort.
Over the years, Tiger Blue has undergone several thoughtful renovations to enhance guest safety and comfort while preserving her authentic character. The most recent refurbishment in 2025–2026 refreshed both exterior and interior spaces, celebrating Indonesia’s cultural roots while improving onboard systems and design.
Today, Tiger Blue offers authentic sailing adventures and private charters in Indonesia’s most extraordinary waters.

LIVING SPACES
One of the best things about Tiger Blue is the sense of space.
In addition to the large dining table, the main deck features two double daybeds as well as a chill out area at the rear of the boat. On the upper deck you can kick
back on our sunloungers, taking in the spectacular views whilst enjoying the sunshine and perhaps a good book.
YOUR CREW
At the heart of Tiger Blue is a dedicated Indonesian crew whose experience, warmth and passion for the ocean shape every journey.
Many members of the team have been with Tiger Blue for more than 10 years, creating a strong sense of continuity and family on board.
Their expertise allows guests to explore safely while discovering hidden bays, vibrant coral reefs and remote anchorages far from the crowds.
From our skilled deck crew to our talented chefs and attentive hospitality team, every member plays a vital role in creating a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
