SeapixOnlineDisplaying 2 of 10011 ALVEI -the 100 year-old sailing ship ALVEI moored in Little Shoal Bay where she has, apparently been for the past few days.
The 38m three masted square-rigged schooner was built in Montrose, Scotland in 1920, as a cargo ship.
Having spent some of her life as a herring drifter she is a true blast from the past era of real sailing ships.
Refitted in 1995, the 103gt, Port Vila-registered vessel carries up to 14 guests and 9 crew, guests learning all the traditional skills of the sailor.
