IJC Liveaboard: 5-Cabin Komodo Charter

IJC is pitched squarely at group bookings that want a full boat without the cost of a boutique luxury yacht. At 26 metres long and 5 metres wide, she holds fourteen guests across five cabins, which is one of the better price-per-head configurations in the Deluxe category. The design borrows from the modern Indonesian charter standard: open dining at the bow, a covered chill zone midships and a sundeck above, all set up for sunbathing, long lunches and mid-afternoon naps.

About IJC

IJC is built for group charters that want the full run of a boat without paying VIP-class rates. Her 26-metre length gives her enough stability for overnight anchorages in Komodo's more exposed bays, and the 5-metre beam translates into genuinely usable deck space rather than a narrow walkway. The cabin count of five is slightly unusual at this length, most comparable boats push to six or seven, and the result is cabins with more air and storage than you might expect. Traditional Indonesian craftsmanship shows through in the visible hardwood finishes, while the cabin layout follows modern charter conventions.

Facilities on Board

Above deck, IJC is designed for group living. The sundeck is one of the boat's headline features, set up with sunbathing space and the obligatory sunset drinks zone. Dining happens at an open table near the bow, which lets breakfasts and lunches open up to the view rather than stay boxed indoors. There is a separate chill area for reading, card games or simply sleeping off the morning's trek. All five cabins are air-conditioned with private bathrooms, and the boat supplies snorkeling gear, life vests and safety equipment for the full manifest.

Itinerary Structure

IJC typically runs the Open/Share 3D2N Komodo Tour with a clean, proven sequence: Kelor Island for trek and snorkel, Manjarite for mid-afternoon reef time, Kalong for the sunset bat colony, then Padar at sunrise, Pink Beach, the Komodo Island dragon walk, Manta Point and Taka Makassar on day two, and a closing Sebayur snorkel before the return to Labuan Bajo on day three. Private-charter guests can restructure the itinerary, add a Sumbawa leg or extend to 4D3N or 7D6N where schedules allow.
