Ocean Rover - Indonesia Scuba Diving charters
North Sulawesi
&
Raja Ampat
Ocean Rover was purpose designed for comfortable and safe offshore diving. Her thick steel hull is 100ft/30m long and 26ft/8m wide. She is powered by three Hino V10 420Hp diesel engines, driving three propellers for extra safety. Her cruising speed is 10 knots and the top speed allowing us to visit many far-flung divesites in one single cruise.
Ocean Rover takes a maximum of sixteen passengers in eight cabins which are all located on the main and upper decks. Six cabins are identical (4 upper deck and 2 main deck) and have large double beds with single upper berths and large panoramic windows. The two forward cabins on the main deck feature wide upper and lower single berths and have dual portholes. All cabins have private bathrooms, individually controlled air-conditioning and lots of storage space. All beds are 2 meters (6ft 6in) long so the tallest of passengers can sleep comfortably.
The huge dive-deck has several camera tables and rinse tanks plus a camera maintenance room. Care has been taken to ensure that photographers have safe places to put down their expensive cameras just before and after dives.
Ocean Rover’s unique feature is the "whale-deck" the lower section of the dive-deck which slopes down to the waterline allowing for optimum ease of diving operations. This whale-deck is where the dinghies are stored when the vessel is underway.
The spacious salon offers a comfortable dining and sitting arrangement, a fully equipped entertainment center and a camera charging area with 220/110 volts connections. The interior has been kept light and airy and has a relaxed atmosphere. The salon has a refreshments corner and our extensive marine life library is kept here as well.
The aft upper deck -or sun deck- is partly shaded and is everyone`s favourite area for relaxing and socializing between dives. A second refreshments corner is located here and passengers can sit around the large picnic style table or settle down on one of the comfortable lounge chairs.
Ocean Rover’s sixteen passengers are looked after by twelve crew members. .
Ocean Rover operates in the waters of Indonesia crusing North Sulawesi and Raja ampat during different times of the year.
