Pacific High is honored as “Phinisi Builder and Charter” at the 2025 Yacht Style Awards, celebrating excellence in yacht design and charter services.

For Pacific High, this award marks more than just a milestone—it highlights our dedication to preserving Indonesia’s rich boat-building heritage and delivering exceptional charter experiences in one of the world’s most awe-inspiring archipelagos.

We handcraft each yacht at our Bira shipyard in Sulawesi, using ancestral techniques passed down through generations.

A tribute to the team behind the scenes
This award belongs to every member of our in-house team in Bali, our dedicated crew members at sea, and our craftsmen in Bira who continuously go above and beyond to ensure our yachts are both beautiful and seaworthy. Their talent and unwavering commitment to excellence are what set Pacific High apart in the world of luxury yacht charters.
