Open the project roadmap, year by year scaling planThe idea
PT Bali Fastest Ferries (the WATERJET.id brand) is a fully operating business: an active fleet, passenger maritime transport licenses, routes and sales. We run between six islands and keep our own office on each of them: Bali (Padang Bai), Sanur, Nusa Penida, Gili Trawangan, Gili Air and Lombok.
The company owns two high-speed passenger boats with 120 seats each; together they run 4 trips a day. The boats are fully refitted: new engines, safety systems and AI video monitoring with Face ID — automatic head count on board cross-checked with tickets sold, eliminating revenue leakage.
Sales mix: 60% through Travelier Group aggregators (12go.asia, bookaway.com, easybook.com, ticketboat.id), Asia's largest boat-ticket distribution network; 40% through our own waterjet.id website and WATERJET iOS and Android apps, accepting Apple Pay, Google Pay, Stripe, Visa and Mastercard via a Dubai entity. WATERJET is the company's registered trademark.
Each of the 6 island offices hosts a rental of premium 2026 equipment: E-Foil, underwater scooters and oxygen masks, water bikes — an additional ≈ $90,000 in net profit per year, not included in the base model.

Why it matters
Already operating
An active fleet, licenses, routes, offices and sales — not a startup, an operating business with confirmed revenue.
60% aggregators, 40% direct sales
60% of tickets go through Travelier Group (12go.asia, bookaway.com, easybook.com, ticketboat.id), 40% through our own waterjet.id website and WATERJET mobile apps. WATERJET is our registered trademark, a direct channel with no reseller fees.
Closed market, sold out year-round
The busiest maritime tourism route in the world: new government high-speed boat licenses on these routes are no longer issued; tickets are booked a week ahead year-round — no off-season, no revenue dip.
