Phinisi Owner Editorial Desk publishes this site. We keep the byline at desk level on purpose: the research, the drafting and the later corrections rarely belong to one person, and a shared name is the honest way to describe shared work.
What this desk publishes
Coverage on this site is organised around boat charters, what things actually cost, side-by-side comparisons and property questions. When a page changes hands, the person taking it over reads it end to end before their first edit.
How we handle what we have not confirmed
Indonesian rules and tariffs change on their own schedule. Where we have confirmed something against an official source we say so; where we have not, the page says that too. An unmarked estimate is the one thing we will not publish.
What this desk does not claim
There are no credentials, licence numbers or career histories quoted on this site. Claims like that need paperwork behind them, and we would rather publish nothing than publish something we cannot evidence. Treat these pages as background reading, not as professional advice.
Corrections are welcome. If a page here is wrong or stale, say so and it gets edited rather than defended. You can reach the desk through our contact page.
