Update June 2022: it’s been a good run since introduced in 2016. The Sea Urchin luxury yacht had recently been sold off. There is a new, but different, boat being built as we write this. Stay tuned as we update you when that is on the waters.
CHARTER DESCRIPTION
Sea Urchin Charters is everything you can ask for to fulfil your luxury Rompin sailfish and fishing adventures in Malaysia.
Sea Urchin is a 72-footer custom sport fishing yacht refitted in 2016. With ultimate luxury sport-fishing in mind, Sea Urchin is designed to carry 6 anglers for optimum comfort.
Sea Urchin is the only live aboard luxury sport fishing yacht operating full time in Kuala Rompin and other locations in Malaysia.
Sea Urchin Charters’ schedule (flexible):
- March to October: Kuala Rompin
- November to March: Port Dickson, Langkawi Island, Phuket Thailand, Terengganu islands e.g. Tenggol, Redang, Perhentian.
Our west coast charters are based on requests. From late October to March, we are usually berthed in a marina located in Port Dickson in the state of Negeri Sembilan. The Sea Urchin will sail to destinations such as Pangkor island, Langkawi island, Phuket, and others when requested.
The Sea Urchin will return to the east coast (Kuala Rompin or other locations) anytime between March to June, depending on charter bookings.We will be based in Kuala Rompin for the peak fishing months of July to October.
Let us know if you are planning anything and we’d be happy to help.

There are 4 cabins in total, and they have been recently refurbished with modern amenities; and comfortable mattresses, pillows and duvets.
Sea Urchin also comes with a fully enclosed flybridge with great visibility. The generous space in the 2 tier aft deck is designed for guests to have perfect comfort while cruising.
The upper tier comes with wooden flooring and a dining table for guests to mingle and dine.
The bottom tier is shaded and has a massive swim platform, comfy cushions and ample room for the anglers to score their big catch. On the foredeck there is a davit for tender launch and retrieval.
