We started operations in Pemba with a rented fishing dhow. Our clients loved this old fashioned but newly built vessel. We then upgraded to Tornado Rigid inflatable boats. But we had so many calls for the sedate dhows that we bought two more.

Shamoo and Rock Hoppa

The tropical sun disagrees with the polyurethane tubes and so we have replaced these with specially designed buoyant fibre glass pontoons. Every last detail has been thought of, as these hulls were slowly but professionally re-habilitated by Viv Perry and Chillie. Yes that is the same Chillie who showed us the dive sites in 1999! To power Shamoo and Rock Hoppa through the water, we have made a ground breaking jump. We have fitted twin 60 hp 100hp Yamaha 4 stroke engines. With their enhanced fuel economy and environmental controls, the Yamaha engines are the right choice for an eco-aware company. We are the only operator in Pemba using such engines. At the time of writing, we are just about to have Rock Hoppa back on line for longer premium trips. But boats do not end with engines, we have some of the most experienced boat handling crews to power you through the sea!
