MV Kuda Laut

Budget Surf Charters – Only $1,200 per person

Kuda Laut offers the cheapest prices for surf charters to the Mentawai Islands.  And not only do you get a great value, you also get great surf.  Kuda Laut was built and is owned and operated by Michael “Moose” Matthew.  Moose has been surfing the Mentawais for years and knows the area as well as anyone, probably better.  He will make sure that you are in the right place at the right time to get the sort of waves you want.

Kuda Laut just had a major refit in the off-season and is looking good.  New paint, new  windows, new generator, new DVD and a big supply of new movies.  And now Kuda Laut is fully air-conditioned.  You can get the same affordable charters as in the past, but now you can do it with more comfort.

Kuda Laut has all the modern safety and navigation equipment.  The same crew from Nias has been working on the boat for years and they will make sure that you are comfortable and well fed.  Kuda Laut has a 4 meter aluminum tender with 40 HP outboard to run you to and from the lineup or into the beach for a walk about.  When you are taking a break from the surf you can relax in the saloon and watch a video.  Snorkeling and fishing equipment is also available.

For those of you who are looking to get off the beaten path, Kuda Laut can take you up north to the Telos, Nias, and the Hinakos.  Moose keeps a house in Nias and is very familiar with all the breaks up north.  Lagundri Bay, the famous Nias right hander, has gotten even better since the March 28 earthquake raised the elevation of the reef.

  What Kuda Laut may lack in luxury, Moose more than makes up for with his experience and knowledge of the surf and the ocean conditions.  He knows where to go and when to go there.  Whatever you may be looking for in the way of surf, if it is happening that day Moose will make sure you are on the spot to take advantage of it.  He specializes in steering clear of the crowds. 

 If you want to get the best value for your charter (great waves for the lowest price) there is no way you can beat Kuda Laut.  This is a deal you should take advantage of now because Moose plans to get an upscale boat pretty soon and when that happens the prices will be going UP!
