The desk

Four Functions, and Who You Will Actually Meet

A brokerage is only as good as the people it puts in front of you, which is exactly why this page does not invent them. Here is what the desk covers, and the point at which you meet the individuals covering it.

4 functions
Brokerage · survey · legal · operations
2 offices
Bali and Labuan Bajo
At intake
When you meet the individuals
Independent
Surveyors and counsel, appointed by you

Quick answer

The desk covers four functions: brokerage and buyer intake, technical survey coordination, legal and structuring introductions, and operations. Named individuals are introduced during intake rather than published on a web page.

  • Marine surveyors and legal counsel are independent and appointed by you, not by us.
  • The operating expertise sits in the group’s own fleet, which we can show you working.
  • Ask for names, credentials and licence numbers at intake — a real desk can produce them.

Why there are no biographies on this page

The previous version of this page profiled five named individuals with universities, professional credentials and former employers attached — including a named Head of Legal presented as a licensed notary specialising in foreign investment. None of it was sourced, and none of the five matched the founder named on the site’s own homepage. A buyer structuring a seven-figure purchase may reasonably rely on a claim like that, so the page now describes functions and invites you to ask for the people. If the desk has them, it can name them.

What the desk covers

Four Functions, and Where Each One Stops

The boundaries matter more than the titles. Two of these four deliberately end in an introduction to somebody independent.

Through to closing

Brokerage and intake

Understands what you are buying for, screens the book against it, arranges inspection, and drafts the offer against an itemised cost basis. Paid by the seller, which is the incentive worth knowing about before anything else.

Stops at the introduction

Survey coordination

Arranges the independent marine survey, sea trial and document audit that are conditions of sale in the standard contract. The surveyor is appointed by you and reports to you — we share the ones we trust and you choose.

Stops at the introduction

Legal and structuring

Walks you through the compliant ownership routes — a PT PMA holding the flag, or a bareboat arrangement — with counsel, before any deposit moves. The advice comes from counsel, not from this desk.

Through to first season

Operations

Crew, permits, park fees and managed charter. This is the function with the deepest bench, because the group runs its own fleet on the same crews and calendar.

Ask us for these

What to Demand Before You Trust a Brokerage

Including this one. Every item below is something a genuine desk can produce on request and an invented one cannot.

  • Ask

    The names of the people on your deal

    Who is the broker, who coordinates the survey, which counsel is being introduced. Names, not titles.

    At intake

  • Ask

    Company registration and licence numbers

    The Indonesian entity, its registration, and any tourism or maritime licence it holds. Numbers can be checked; assertions cannot.

    Before deposit

  • Ask

    Who pays the brokerage fee

    Ours comes from the seller. That is a real conflict and you should know its direction rather than be reassured about it.

    At intake

  • Ask

    The surveyor’s independence

    Whether the surveyor is appointed by you or by the broker, and who receives the report first.

    Before survey

  • Ask

    The vessel’s paper trail

    Prior surveys, refit invoices, charter revenue where relevant, and crew notes. Every listing we publish arrives with them.

    Before offer

  • Ask

    What the desk will not do

    Nobody competent does everything. Ask where the brokerage stops and an independent party starts.

    At intake

If any brokerage — us included — will not produce these, that is the answer.

The group behind the desk

Where the Experience Actually Sits

The verifiable part of this brokerage is not a set of biographies, it is an operating fleet. The group charters phinisi every week through its own brands, builds them at Bulukumba, and manages crews on the same calendar the vessels for sale run on. That is checkable in a way a résumé is not: you can charter one of the boats.

Ask for the People by Name

Send a note and you will get the broker who will actually handle your file, not a general enquiry address. Ask for credentials and licence numbers at the same time — it is a reasonable request and the answer tells you a great deal.
