• For passenger comfort and to optimise space on the yacht, all diving equipment is kept on the dive boat accompanying the yacht. In the Maldives these dive boats are called dhonis. This separation of the main vessel and the dive boat makes the yacht more spacious while also helping with dive organisation, as all equipment is in one place, and the stability and low freeboard of the dhoni make entry from its dive platform easier. The dive boat carries 12 steel 15-litre and 18 aluminium 12-litre tanks, a compressor, medical equipment and oxygen.
