Why this number
What Moves a Phinisi Price
The book runs from USD 153,000 to USD 1,120,000. Length is the weakest predictor in that spread — two 27 m hulls on this page ask 3.6x apart. These four factors do the work.
Hull age and last major refit
The date of the last major refit moves a price more than the build year does.
Length and cabin count
Cabin count, not length alone: VIP IV and VIP III are both 27 m, and the ten-cabin hull asks 3.6x the seven-cabin one.
Class and survey status
Current class and a clean independent survey are what let a lender or an insurer price the asset at all.
Charter contracts attached
A vessel that transfers with forward bookings carries a premium over an identical hull with an empty calendar.
How a sale runs
What You Are Actually Agreeing To
The same terms apply to every vessel on the book. Stated here so they can be checked before a conversation rather than discovered during one.
- Ownership structure
- An Indonesian entity (PT PMA) holding the flag, or a bareboat arrangement.
- Survey and sea trial
- Independent marine survey, sea trial and document audit are conditions of sale in the standard contract, not optional extras.
- Payment schedule
- Staged against milestones — offer, survey, transfer — with the beneficiary matching the contracting entity at every stage.
- What arrives with her
- Every listing arrives with a verifiable operating history: survey records, refit invoices, charter revenue where relevant, and crew notes.
- Charter placement
- Vessels can be placed into managed charter with the same crews, standards and calendar that run the group’s own fleet.
