Vela is 50-meter luxury yacht, melding centuries-old tradition and modern naval design. Vela was conceived by an American architect and built in South Sulawesi by renowned Konjo boatbuilders.


It’s built from locally sourced ironwood and teak. To limit its footprint, Vella was shaped to optimize fuel efficiency at sea and her rigging is well-suited for leisure sailing. Twice as many trees were used for construction were planted in Borneo.

Real Stories, Unforgettable Journeys

James McAllister

“An unforgettable journey aboard Vela! The yacht is simply stunning, with spacious cabins and a sun deck perfect for relaxing between dives. The dive guides were incredibly knowledgeable, ensuring we got the best underwater experience. Oh, and the sunset cocktails? Absolutely magical!” 

Sophie Tanaka

“Vela exceeded all expectations! From the moment we stepped on board, the crew made us feel at home. The diving was spectacular, especially in Raja Ampat, where we encountered manta rays up close. The food was a delightful mix of Indonesian and Western dishes—every meal felt like a feast!” 

Daniel & Emma

“A luxurious yet adventurous liveaboard! The attention to detail on Vela was outstanding, from the cozy lounge area to the well-organized dive deck. The night dive experience was surreal, and we even spotted a walking shark! Huge thanks to the amazing crew for making this trip one for the books.”
