Service history

The ship was built in the early 1980s at Meyer Werft, Papenburg as KM Kambuna, a passenger ferry of the state-owned shipping company Pelni. Kambuna entered service with Pelni on 25 March 1984. [3] The ship served in Jakarta-Surabaya-Makassar route. [5] On 13 May 2005, Kambuna along with KM Rinjani were transferred to Indonesian Navy as KRI Tanjung Nusanive and KRI Tanjung Fatagar. [3] According to the Pelni's Head of Public Relations at the time, the two ships were transferred because the numbers of passengers were decreasing and also rising operational costs including fuels became more expensive. [6] The ships would undergo refit to convert them into troop transports and then commissioned on 1 September 2005. [2]

While serving in the Navy, Tanjung Nusanive was involved in various military operations, including transporting border troops and its logistics, carrying natural disasters relief, and also took part in Navy's effort on national development through ABRI Masuk Desa program and Operation Bhakti Surya Bhaskara Jaya. Aside from transporting troops and logistics, the ship was also used by high-ranking officials while conducting inspections. [3] The ship is also used to transport people during the annual homecoming season, with the classes ranging from economy class to VVIP class. [4] During a period of 11–22 November 2011, Tanjung Nusanive was moored at Port of Boom Baru, Musi River in Palembang to serve as "floating hotel" for committee and team assistant of 2011 Southeast Asian Games. In addition to being a "floating hotel", the ship also opened a public visit for education on Indonesian maritime world. [7]

On 29 April 2015 at 16:30 UTC+9, Tanjung Nusanive was involved in an accident with a passenger ferry KM Nggapulu of Pelni at Jayapura Port. When Tanjung Nusanive was performing a berthing maneuver to dock at Pier 4, it hit the pier and grazed Nggapulu which were docked at an adjacent pier. As a result of the accident, the departure of Nggapulu was delayed for an hour and the starboard bow of Tanjung Nusanive was damaged while Nggapulu only suffered scratched paints on its port hull. According to the commander of Tanjung Nusanive, the accident was caused by strong winds from the ship's portside. [8] [9]

In a meeting at Ministry of Tourism on 7 February 2019, Tanjung Nusanive was planned to be sunk in the Thousand Islands, Jakarta to be utilized as an underwater tourism spot. [10] After serving for 15 years, Tanjung Nusanive was decommissioned on 24 January 2020 in a ceremony at Pelindo JICT 2 Pier, Tanjung Priok, North Jakarta. [3]
