King Cirox 2 Phinisi, the 24.8 m Komodo phinisi: decks, engines and the safety kit

She is 24.8 m long overall, the figure printed on the official ship sketch held by the harbour office in Labuan Bajo. She was built in 2024 and finished in 2025.

Two Mitsubishi engines drive her, rated 90 PK and 190 PK in the boat's booklet. A four-tonne fresh-water tank and a one-tonne fuel tank are listed beside them. There is a tender boat for landings; its type and engine are not stated, so we do not describe it. For navigation the booklet lists AIS, the Automatic Identification System that lets the harbour and other vessels see where the boat is.

Some numbers you will find on other spec sheets are missing here on purpose. The sketch prints deck widths between 3.20 and 3.97 m, so we print no single beam figure until it is confirmed. Cruising speed, gross tonnage, generator, hull material and flag are not stated in any source we hold.

A blank on this page means the boat's booklets do not print it. It does not mean we guessed. The full table sits below, with every field that has a source.

The official ship sketch shows two decks with cabins. The main deck carries cabins 1, 2 and 3, the dining room, the galley and the toilets. The upper deck carries cabins 4, 5 and 6 and an open area. We read the sketch's cabin numbers as the booklet's, which puts Malang, Surabaya and Gresik on the main deck and Kediri, Jember and Madiun above them. The sketch and the booklet were drawn separately, so treat that match as our reading, not a stamped fact.

Above the upper deck is the roof: bean bags on green turf, a low table, the mast and the wheelhouse. Inside the wheelhouse the photographs show an orange wooden ship's wheel, a Garmin unit and a chart plotter.

Stairs join all three levels. There is no lift.

Height changes how the sea feels, as on any boat. The upper deck moves more and sits further from the galley and dining room; the main deck moves less and is where meals and most of the day's traffic happen. Nobody has measured noise or motion cabin by cabin on this boat, so read the plan below as a rule of thumb, not a test result.

The booklet prints 6 crew and names them in three groups: cruise director, chef and boat crew. How the places divide between wheelhouse, engine and deck is not printed, so the ratio below counts heads, not job titles.

Berths are a sum you can check. Five cabins sleep two in a double bed and Gresik sleeps four in bunks; that is the standard load, with no extra bed unfolded. Add the extra beds that all six cabins can take, one in Gresik and one or two in each of the others, and you reach 23. The 23rd place is an extra bed in Gresik. That is the most we sell on one sailing.

• Standard: one guest per fixed bed or bunk.
• With extra beds: up to 23 guests.
• Crew: 6, whatever the guest count.

On a full boat that works out at 1 crew per 3.8 guests. On an open trip with half the cabins sold, the same crew looks after half the guests.

The equipment table below has three kinds of row: fitted, on request and not fitted. Every cabin has air conditioning, sea-facing windows and sockets. Five have a private bathroom; Gresik uses the one shared bathroom. Malang and Madiun each have a private balcony, and the tub is Madiun's: a wooden bathtub on the balcony, in the open air.

Masks and snorkels, a canoe and, on the open trip, a red paddle board are there for the water, and a karaoke and sound system for the evenings. Starlink Wi-Fi is printed in both booklets and shows in our photos as a dish on a window sill beside the roof-deck bean bags; no speed is promised.

The not-fitted rows matter as much. There are no fins, which is why a fins reminder turns up wherever this site talks about snorkelling. There is no dive compressor and there are no tanks, because this is a snorkel boat. Stabilisers and a jacuzzi are not on board, and there is no lift. A generator is not listed in the booklets, so we make no claim either way.

Guide and photo or video crew are on request for private charters, and included on the open trip.
