LASHA is a 52.5-metre, 466 GT phinisi completed in 2023, hand-built from Ulin ironwood and teak in the Bugis boatbuilding tradition of South Sulawesi — a craft UNESCO recognised as Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2017. Her owner commissioned the ship privately, then entrusted bookings to Komodo Luxury, her official marketing partner, ahead of her first Komodo season in August 2026.
Every phinisi begins the same way: as timber, a naming, and an intention. LASHA's intention is written into her tagline, "Sailing Beyond Dreams" — not as fantasy, but as a builder's phrase: bigger than the brief, finer than the render, more generous than the market required.
At 52.5 metres and 466 gross tonnes with ten ensuite cabins, she became one of the largest luxury phinisi in the Komodo fleet, where most premium vessels carry five to eight cabins.
The Tradition
Why Is a Phinisi Different From a Yacht?
A yacht is manufactured; a pinisi is raised. LASHA's modern comfort sits inside a South Sulawesi boatbuilding lineage.
Ulin Ironwood & Teak
LASHA's hull was built from Ulin ironwood and Jati teak, the hardwood pairing named in the UNESCO listing for South Sulawesi's pinisi boatbuilding. The craft centres on the Konjo boatbuilders of Tana Beru, Ara and Lemo-Lemo.
Modern Luxury, Heritage Hull
Marble bathrooms with rain showers, an in-suite jacuzzi bathtub in each Master Suite, a PlayStation 5 in the Living Room, and a Sun Deck jacuzzi all sit within a vessel shaped by hand-built maritime tradition.

Why Build Ten Cabins?
Ten ensuite cabins make LASHA a different answer from smaller five-to-eight-cabin phinisi: three generations of one family, a wedding party, a full corporate retreat, every guest in an ensuite stateroom.
For Timing
Why the Maiden Season Matters
Her first public sailing departs Labuan Bajo on 17 August 2026 — Indonesian Independence Day — a date chosen to honour the phinisi's place in Indonesian maritime heritage.
