A Classic Yacht
Duyung Baru
27 M | 4 Cabins | 8 Guests
Duyung Baru is a 27-metre Phinisi designed for cabin voyages and private charters in Komodo, with four cabins and a layout that works particularly well for small dive groups, couples, families, and friends travelling together. Her strength lies in the balance between specialist purpose and easy comfort on board. Built for year-round cruising in Komodo, she offers a more intimate charter format with the practical dive setup.
The name means The New Mermaid, which gives the yacht a light sense of identity and magic.
“Duyung Baru is a good choice for guests who want a smaller Komodo charter with proper dive capability behind it. She feels practical and personal rather than overly elaborate.”

Purpose-built
On Board Duyung Baru
Life on board Duyung Baru is shaped around a compact but well-organised rhythm, where diving, snorkelling, meals, and time on deck all move easily together. The shared spaces are simple but thoughtfully arranged, with a salon, bar, outdoor lounge, and sun deck giving guests enough room to relax between dives or passages without making the yacht feel larger than it needs to be. For a small-group charter, the onboard flow feels practical and easy to settle into.
Practical Elegance
Cabins on Duyung Baru
Accommodation on Duyung Baru is arranged with practicality in mind. The main-deck sea-view cabin gives the yacht one slightly stronger lead cabin, while the three lower-deck cabins complete the layout in a way that works well for couples, friends, or a family travelling together.
The overall setup feels balanced and functional rather than suite-led, which suits a yacht designed around active private charters and cabin voyages.
Food & Beverages
Dining on Duyung Baru
Dining on board Duyung Baru follows the rhythm of a Komodo dive charter, with meals, snacks, and time together woven naturally between dives, island visits, and quieter stretches at anchor. The indoor and outdoor dining options give the day enough variation, while the surrounding lounge and deck spaces help the yacht feel relaxed.
Food on board is best thought of as fresh, straightforward, and suited to the pace of the voyage, with meals prepared to keep the experience comfortable and well supported rather than formal.

Expert Insights on Duyung Baru
Barefoot’s take
Duyung Baru fits guests who care more about the quality of the Komodo experience than about unnecessary scale on board. The yacht feels practical and close to the water, with the kind of dive setup and local rhythm that make a smaller private charter work especially well.
