Design, build and Classification
Infinti is built with steel and is inspected and classed by RINA Italy. Extensive inspections are done before class is renewed. The last renewal was in December 2018. RINA (Italy) is one of the premier and oldest IACS classification societies. Currently Infiniti is the only IACS classed dive liveaboard in the Philippines.
Approval by RINA class involves:
- approval of all drawings of the vessel submitted by the designer of the shipyard
- supervision of the newbuilding construction at the shipyard, through inspection and patrolling activities during all the construction process of the ship, and attend sea trials before the ship enters into service
- issuing of the ship’s class certificate

Nautilus GPS locators
In the Infiniti 2019-2020 season onwards, we have Nautilus GPS locator devices for divers. These can be activated on the surface and will send a ping via AIS and radio of the vessel and passing vessels.
We have 30 such devices on board for every diver and dive crew.

We do not blend Nitrox on the boat with pure Oxygen tanks. Keeping pure oxygen on board is regarded as a safety hazard
