"Masters of the Sumatran Surf Universe. 12 days of blue bliss….kicked off with a 100kg Marlin by the big skipper, followed by day after day of good food, beautiful tropical islands and polished perfection in the surf. The Tengirri was run like a well oiled machine…as profressional as it gets. Thanks for a great holiday."
Clay Youngkin (Sydney, Australia, T01:Feb 2009)
"Great 12 days guys, thanks for the variety, not a dull moment. Great waves and THAT marlin!! Hope to do it again"

Testimonials for Tengirri Boat Charters (2006 season)
"Massive thanks to the boat crew of Tengirri, Jeff Davies, for skippering the 47 foot turbo charged Catamaran throughout the island archipelagos chasing waves (the biggest larrikin out here, a man who lives off Tim Tams and beer - no joke), Filthy Phil Kiem for putting up with our crap and owning the boat, Donald the chef for daily masterpieces - best food in the islands (ever), Titus the mental Timorese-Portuguese boat engineer who sleeps in his rashie (even has a special rashie he wants to be buried in), and all the other surfers on the boat for allowing me to drop in on them when not shooting. If you're interested in a 12 day tour like this around the Sumatran islands, I recommend this zippy 47 footer as you get to places fast, the food is awesome and carrying 6 surfers you're not an instant crowd."

"Just wanted to pass on my thanks for a stunning time with Captain Bintang and Phil. The organisation was fantastic and the boys went the extra mile to ensure we surfed great uncrowded waves. As I spend half my life hamming around the world eating and drinking, I can honestly say the food and service were better than most of the five star establishments I frequent! Can’t wait to the next trip and I wish luck with your future ventures. Thanks again for an amazing experience."

Testimonials for Tengirri Boat Charters (2005 season)
"The trip was very well organised. It is the first time travelling where I
really didn't have to worry about anything. There was always someone to
pick us up, explain what was happening and take us to the best areas. It was a very relaxing trip that allowed us to focus on enjoying
every moment. The crew were all very friendly and easy to live
with...important on a boat."
Laura Spencer (Australia, T15: Late Sep 2005)

"This is the 6th trip to Indo and my 5th boat trip. This has been by far the best run boat, I have been on.
Thanks for the hospitality."

"You guys are the best! Very customer friendly.Thanks for a great trip."
Ken Atlee (USA, T12: Aug 2005)
"Just a quick note to thank you guys for the trip. We had a good time and
most importantly got some good waves. Steve and Phil were awesome hosts and
made sure we were well fed and got the best of what was on offer with the
waves. All the transfers, flights and hotel bookings went really smoothly
which we are all are happy about as it is organised kaos at those Indo
airports. Also Phil's photos of us surfing was an added bonus. From the moment we landed in Medan, we were looked after throughout the time we were there. Our boards turned up on time and undamaged, transfers ready on time, and were helped out at the airports. All meals, beers and drinks were in plentiful supply on the boat too. Stoked.
Thanks again for everything, if any of us come up that way again, you guys
will be first on the list to call."
Chris Forsythe on behalf of everyone (Australia, T10: Jul 2005)
Many more testimonials to come! Who knows? It might be you...
