MV Ocean Rover Liveaboard
The MV Ocean Rover is one of the most famous and popular liveaboards in the world and a truly world-class liveaboard diving vessel. She is the type of boat other operations do their best to emulate, and most fall short of this goal. She was built in the year 2000. She spends half her time in North Sulawesi diving the fabulous walls and muck diving spots there, then half the year at Raja Ampat, some of the most diverse reefs in the world.
Ocean Rover was purpose designed for comfortable and safe offshore diving. Her thick steel hull is 100ft (30m) long and 24ft (8m) wide. She is powered by three Hino V10 430Hp diesel engines, driving three propellers for extra safety. Her cruising speed is 10 knots and the top speed 12.5 knots, allowing her to visit many far-flung dive sites in one single voyage. She has a 3,500 nautical mile cruising range (over 6,000km).
