    Alore phinisi charter in Komodo National Park

    Alore

    The published navigation list runs all the way to a clinometer, which almost nothing else in this class bothers with

    Cruising Areas

    Komodo

    Alore works Komodo National Park only, out of Labuan Bajo, on trips from one to six nights. The short itinerary picks up at 09:00 and runs west to Kelor for the trek, Manjarite for snorkelling, then Kalong at dusk for the flying foxes. Longer versions take in Padar, Pink Beach, the ranger walk on Komodo or Rinca, Manta Point, Taka Makassar, Siaba and Kanawa. Diving itineraries stretch to ten days and nine nights, which is unusual for a boat that stays inside the park.

    Who This Suits

    Suits: mixed groups who need to divide rooms without anyone feeling shortchanged. Seven cabins in four different configurations, including a genuine four-berth family room and two matched balcony doubles, gives a party of twelve to sixteen more allocation options than most boats this size.

    Also worth knowing: the drone, GoPro and mirrorless documentation is included in the rate rather than sold as an add-on, and the camera room means underwater photographers have somewhere to work.

    Less suited to: long remote expeditions. The watermaker produces only 1,000 litres a day, well below the 5,000 to 10,000 carried by the boats running Raja Ampat and the Banda Sea, and her published itineraries stay inside Komodo.

    About This Vessel

    Alore is a 2022 phinisi working Komodo out of Labuan Bajo, and her selling point is the spread of cabin types rather than one headline suite. Seven cabins take sixteen guests across two decks, and the layouts differ materially: a four-berth family room, two doubles with private balconies, two twins and two doubles below the waterline. For a mixed group that has to allocate rooms fairly, that range does more work than a single grand cabin would.

    She measures 37.49 metres by 7.15, built from ironwood, bitti and teak, and runs a Mitsubishi 8DC9 at seven to ten knots. Navigation is more complete than most boats in her class list: radar, GPS, AIS, radio, compass, satellite phone and a clinometer. Three generator banks at 80, 42.5 and 22.5 KVA. The watermaker is modest at 1,000 litres a day, which is a genuine limit on long remote itineraries and part of why she stays inside the park.

    The dive setup is real rather than decorative: a dedicated dive deck with tanks, breathing air compressors and rental gear, plus a camera room for storing and charging equipment. Up to four dives a day with a guide are quoted by agents selling her. Alongside that sit paddleboards, a canoe and a tender, and on the leisure side a living room, indoor and outdoor dining areas, a sun deck and a library.

    Alore is sold as a whole-boat private charter. Official pricing is banded by group size and trip length: the shortest leisure package is two days and one night from USD 5,928 for up to eight guests, rising for larger parties. Diving packages start at three days and two nights and include up to four guided dives per day.
