It’s a quick but very rough 1 hour 20 minute trip from Phuket to Koh Lanta. You basically just sit there and watch whatever/whoever is in front of you and hope the ride is over soon. That being said, I’d still recommend it to go quickly from A to B!

One of the engines failed about 3/4 of the way there. A very scary at sea repair ensued to no avail. The boat didn’t seem able to go above idle speed afterwards but thankfully made it to dock eventually. My advice, get a bigger boat or fly. These speedboats are a risk too far.

They changed ferries mid-way and the second ferry was in terrible shape with broken windows and very worn out. Felt a bit unsafe in the big waves.

A nice and exciting boat ride on the Andaman sea. The captain even approached an island so we could make good photos of it. A wonderful experience.

It was a good trip,felt like we were doing to reach the destination confidently. The approximate hour is well estimated,even though the first van was a bit late. I would definitely take this ferry again!
