Seahorse
THE SEAHORSE LIVEABOARD
a great yacht designed and built for diving
The MSY Seahorse is a 33 meter Phinisi style yacht designed for those who love diving. Diving and on-board service are excellent, with great cuisine and table service. Excellent quality/price ratio. Built in 2005, after long years of honorable service in the Indonesian seas, it was completely renovated in 2018 with 6 long months of hectic work, the result: an elegant and contemporary liveaboard.
1. ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES
The cabins of MSY Seahorse are 8, of which 5 with twin beds and 1 double are located on the lower deck and 2 deluxe with sea view windows on the upper deck. All cabins have private bathrooms and air conditioning. Towels and toiletries: soap, shampoo, and toothpaste are provided on board.
The MSY Seahorse was designed by an expert navigator and diver, who was able to manage the spaces very well, especially in terms of diving. Each of Seahorse Liveaboard’s environments has been created to accommodate the special needs divers have: more storage for our gear, recharging and caring for our cameras, and more space for briefing and preparing to dive, and plenty of room to relax after the dives.
A room with fans is dedicated to drying equipment, the very large diving deck is located on the main deck with easy access to the two 7-meter aluminum tenders, from which diving is practiced. A table dedicated to the maintenance and recharging of the cameras is located in the center of the dive deck.
The lounge is spacious and has separate tables, a bar, an open kitchen with a cool room for fruit and vegetables. On the upper deck there is a comfortable sun deck, with sun loungers and sofas. The current is 220V 24 hours a day, with two-electrode European type sockets.
