Al Dhaen 360 Power Boat

Fishing is what she is set up for, and Al Dhaen 360, a 36ft (11m) power boat built by Al Dhaen in 2008, carries the gear for it.

Water toys

Snorkelling equipment travels with her as well, so guests who would rather be in the water than holding a line can get in and see what lies below the surface wherever she stops.

Where she cruises

Similan is her home port, and she works the waters of Thailand, with January, February, March and December her busiest months.

Accommodation and crew

Eight guests come aboard for a day on the water, and a crew of three runs her, which keeps the boat, the gear and the guests all attended to at the same time. Wi-Fi reaches the boat, so anyone who has to stay reachable can.

Comfort under way

She cruises at 25 knots and will run to 35 when there is reason to, so water well beyond the harbour mouth stays within reach of a single day out rather than a long slog there and back.

Charter notes

Al Dhaen 360 is taken out by the full day or the half day, which suits a small group of up to eight who want fishing and time in the water off Thailand rather than a night aboard, and the hire comes with her three crew.
