Indonesia’s First Fleet of Small Tonnage Expeditionary Vessels, new to the market !
Sometimes, we think the market just gets over loaded and we want to provide our clients with something beyond what everyone else is offering. We have great
pleasure in presenting something, beyond interesting for those of you that are drawn to Indonesia to see REAL ISLAND CULTURES and Life Style. We are
offering two programs to an absolute untouched area of the RIAU Archipelago, called the Anambas & Natuna. This new area you will come to see what we feel will be one of Indonesia’s HOT NEW MUST SEES. These scheduled departures are from Tunjung Pinang and hopefully soon from Singapore in 2020. We invite you to understand this special 7 day cruise program, as well as the unscheduled programs to the rest of this Great Archipelagic Nation.
Both of these clicks need to be explored to understand what we are offering you !
You will see that accomodation on our expeditionary vessels is simple, we are presently in the planning stage to create private cabins on one of the two decks allocated for passengers. While we seek the funds for this, we have blocked the smaller passenger Bunk Deck for Tourism Class and provide food and destinations services and special inclusions for our guests. All these programs are Guaranteed and while you might have lots of extra space on your departure, that will change as the market to comes to understand this special programs to some VERY SPECIAL PLACES.
In the event you have any questions, please pose them to us !

Messages from Director
The Traditional Fleet & Expeditionary Fleet of Indonesia
Established in 1995, the Traditional Fleet of Indonesia is the brainchild of Robin (Retired) & Rima Engel, Directors of SongLine Cruises now on to our 25th year here in Indonesia.
When we met, Bergsma had already been ferrying international travelers to Indonesia’s outer reaches on Bugis Pinisi schooners for a number of years, while an interest in scuba diving, marine conservation and Indonesian tourism had inspired the Engel’s began commissioning these classic ships to join the Brand Traditional Fleet of Indonesia. With their combined experience, similar objectives and a shared love of the sea, they decided to consolidate independently operated traditional ships into a more efficient fleet to market the idea jointly.
Their operations have since complemented each other perfectly to give visitors to Indonesia a whole range of Marine Tourism oriented options.
Over the years, the Traditional Fleet membership has grown to include many of the traditional vessels operating here in the Republic of Indonesia. While all of the members vessels of this organization are independently operated, this site provides you with a comprehensive summary and access to most of these fine vessels. ,
Co-Founder of the Traditional Fleet
By working together with the other members of the Traditional Fleet we continually try to insure that the fleet is distributed evenly throughout the archipelago providing access to as many of the interesting destinations as possible. Scheduled cruises & private charters are offered, and although the itineraries are of different lengths and operate at different times throughout the year, they follow the same routes the Bugis people sailed for thousands of years. The Traditional Fleet presently provides programs of interest to Scuba Divers, Surfers, Sailing Enthusiasts, Conservation groups, Wildlife explorations and even commercial interests.
The vessels making up the Traditional Fleet are specially designed to suit all kinds of budgets and requirements, from casual tourist to the adventurous backpacker. Each boat comes with its own fully qualified crew and includes all meals prepared on board, fresh water and soft drinks in its cruise price.
Whatever you want to do and whichever vessel you choose to do it on, the beauty of this kind of sailing is that you can head for secluded islands and waters that would be virtually impossible to reach even for the most intrepid traveler. Pristine beaches, uninhabited islands and some of the world’s best dive sites are yours to explore, untouched by tourism and therefore unspoiled. A rich cultural and natural experience, it is the ideal activity to add to any visit to Indonesia. And as the archipelago has so much to offer in the way of sailing, you can have as many return cruises as you like and still not see it all.
