Hello Everyone:
      Alvei and remaining crew are in Australia after a 22 day passage from Vanuatu. We are high and dry in a place called The Yard, 44 Barku Court, Hemmant QLD 4174. We have finished cleaning the hull and are about to start on maintenance projects appropriate for dry dock. Soon we'll  be moved to the edge of the Brisbane river and be blocked up on the river bank until April when we set sail for Nelson, New Zealand for a brief stopover before sailing to Tonga .
     Meanwhile, you are most welcome to come visit or stay and help out. My cell phone is 04 5219 1054. It would be good to see old friends and welcome new crew.

Take care,
Evan

 If you are interested in crewing with us, remember, you can join or depart at any point during the season as long as we are in port where there is an immigration office. Please check out other pages on this website for more information about itinerary, costs and how to reserve your bunk.

Sailing on ALVEI is a hands-on, authentic learning experience and lifestyle. Our aim is to maintain a low cost, self-sufficient lifestyle on the world's oceans, learning the traditional arts of the sailor and doing some good along the way.

We operate as a true cooperative--sharing all expenses, labor, knowledge and skill. There are no passengers, no paid positions and no profits, only willing individuals working together to experience an authentic life at sea.

If you have any questions or would like more information please read Evan's Log page that chronicles over 20 years of voyages  aboard Alvei.

​Please don't hesitate to contact us at:
evan@alvei.org
If we don't respond within a few days, we're probably at sea. Please be patient and we'll contact you as soon as possible.
