This is a list of contacts that could be very useful cruising in this part of Indonesia. I hope to get contacts for other ports across Indonesia from Raymond eventually. Raymond Lesmana, who passed on these contacts, is employed as a consultant to promote marine tourism across Indonesia. He used to be involved with the Sail Indonesia Rally.

He is gradually developing a network of local guys who can smooth the way for yachties with practical help such as getting diesel, water, visas, extensions, organising tours etc. Raymond is also in touch with most of the regencies and has said that if a group of yachts intend to be in the same place together he will try to organise a welcome from the local dignitaries.

If these sources are no good then Raymond can be reached on +62811124574 or email [email protected]

We are now continuing our cruising through Indonesia with a number of other boats doing the Back to

Downunder Rally.
