If you or your buddy's are big eaters, ask the company to stock a little bit more food and offer to pay for it, $100 extra per person gets you a lot of food in indo. I travelled with 9 other mates and 8 of us were over 85kg (not fattys) and a couple of the boys were 100kg ish and we thought the meals were a little light on and we started running real low on food on the last couple of days. I ended up buying 15 packets of mie goreing noodles from the camp out the front of HT's.

Not all the surfers on boat trips are 55kg grommets

Just got back last tuesday from the ments. Book through perfect wave travel, Charlie is easy to work with and will answer all your questions. Went on the Samudra Biru. Australian bloke by the name of Adam is running it at the moment, took us to spots with no boats quite a few times with perfect waves. Highly recommend looking into it.
