Asia
Re-built in 2012 KM.Asia is a 24.20 Meters solid wooden hulled beauty and was purpose built for long haul surf exploration along the Indonesian coastline. Her traditional lines are drawn from over 1000 years of Indonesian maritime knowledge. She is locally designed for local conditions, she has an ample space for relax and comfortable in heavy seas and provides maximum safety for all on board. Her twin 190hp Mitsubishi diesel engines provide a cruising speed of 9-10 knots. This combined with her 7000 L fuel capacity allows you the freedom and luxury of extended periods at sea without the time delays of re-supply. This means you get uninterrupted maximum surf time on all of your trips. The floor plan layout allows for a variety of separate areas on-board that cater for dinning, sleeping, chill or surf watching. 3 separate sleeping cabins- 1 Air Conditioned x 8 bunk room, 2 x 2 private cabins provide spacious accommodation for a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 12 guests and her 5 crew.

The Surf Guide
Arguably the most important job on the boat to ensure you get the best empty waves. We use local surfers to guide you to some of the areas less well known waves that western guides just don’t know about. Their intimate knowledge of swell and weather patterns are gained from a lifetime of living on the Mentawai Islands where these decisions are a matter of life and death for the local people.
