Project Cost Transparency

BCI believes in complete cost transparency. During the quotation phase, we provide itemised cost breakdowns covering hull construction, machinery and propulsion, marine systems and electronics, interior fit-out, painting and finishing, classification fees, project management, and delivery logistics. This detail lets you understand exactly where your investment goes and make informed decisions about specifications and priorities. Our milestone-based payment structure means you pay in stages linked to verified construction progress — never in advance of completed work.

Environmental Responsibility

Boat Construction Indonesia is committed to environmentally responsible practices. We source hardwoods from certified sustainable forestry operations, manage waste and emissions from our shipyard facilities in compliance with Indonesian environmental regulations, and advise clients on hull coatings and antifouling systems that minimise marine environmental impact. Our traditional wooden construction methods are inherently low-carbon compared to energy-intensive composite and metal fabrication processes, making Phinisi and wooden vessel construction an environmentally conscious choice.
