Carpe Diem
yacht overview
Carpe Diem is a 34-meter traditional phinisi built in 2014 with a clear focus on dedicated diving operations. Her layout and onboard systems were designed around daily activity, equipment handling, and extended liveaboard use rather than leisure cruising. A major enhancement in 2017 further optimized the vessel for long stays at sea, particularly for dive-focused groups. Carpe Diem operates primarily in Raja Ampat, where compressors, dive tenders, and functional deck spaces support intensive underwater exploration. Within yacht charter in Indonesia, she suits guests who prioritize diving quality and time in the water over onboard luxury.
