OVERVIEW
A 29-metre custom luxury phinisi, chartered privately for eco-conscious ocean expeditions across Komodo, Sumbawa, Alor, Raja Ampat, and remote Indonesian bays.
Handcrafted in South Sulawesi by master shipwright Haji Wahab, Mischief pairs traditional spice-trader lines with relaxed, contemporary coastal luxury. The yacht’s aesthetic blends white wood panelling, natural teak, and hemp rugs with soft cream tones and handwoven earthy textiles. Equipped with a solar battery power system for silent, emissions-free nights at anchor and bio-treatment waste facilities, an attentive crew, including an experienced captain, private chef, and certified dive guides, delivers intuitive, eco-sensitive hospitality for up to six guests.
Living spaces seamlessly bridge shaded, climate-controlled comfort and breezy open-air relaxation across multiple deck levels. Indoors, an airy main lounge, bar, and library provide a cool sanctuary for afternoon reading and casual dining. Outside, wraparound decks and forward-facing settees offer private nooks for sunset cocktails, quiet conversation, and watching the volcanic archipelagos drift by under sail.
Across two decks, three all-above-deck air-conditioned suites provide private sanctuaries framed by wide sea-view windows and warm timbers. The upper deck master suite serves as an intimate private haven, complete with panoramic ocean views, his-and-hers vanities, and a private aft terrace overlooking the wake.
ACCOMMODATION
The suites
Three air-conditioned staterooms accommodate up to six guests in refined comfort, uniquely positioned entirely above deck to maximize natural light and panoramic ocean views. The upper deck hosts an expansive master suite featuring a king-size bed, private en-suite bathroom with power showers and his-and-hers vanities, and direct access to an exclusive aft-facing terrace, while the main deck houses one double cabin and one twin cabin, each complete with wide windows, natural teak flooring, and private en-suite stone bathrooms.

COMMUNAL SPACE
The communal decks
The vessel’s indoor social life centers around a bright, open-plan main deck saloon and bar area featuring plush coastal seating, white wood panelling, ambient lighting, and dedicated dining spaces for casual indoor meals away from the tropical heat.
Outdoors, the expansive aft deck serves as a central hub for shaded alfresco dining, where the Indonesian chef prepares fresh seafood and fusion cuisine framed by the sea. Wraparound side decks lead to private, cushioned forward-facing settees on both the main and upper decks for sunbathing and stargazing, while a dedicated aquatic station provides direct access to scuba diving, snorkeling, paddleboarding, and tender excursions to secluded pink sand beaches and whale shark bays.

Seven nights on Lamima reset something in all of us. The crew anticipated things we hadn't thought to ask for, and Wayag at dawn from that top deck is a sight none of us will describe the same way twice.'
