Peter evans worked on both the Australis and the Ellinis as a Master at Arms. He was given the jobs by the late Billy Borg. His first tour of duty included five cruises in the Med. Followed by two cruises to the Atlantic Islands off Africa, and then two consecutive round the world trips voyage 94 & 95. Home for Peter is now Cape Town.
Peter has many interesting stories including the drunk that damaged the engraved glass panel in the Smoke Room. He threw an ice bucket into it and smashed the huge centre section of the Galaxy. Reason the chap done this was because New Zealand had lost the Annual Rugby cup to Australia.

Due to a huge volume of questions I am asked, for which often I do not have the information, I have decided to ask that only ex-crew actually write to me please. I am delighted with everyones contributions, and will occasionally update the Australis web site, using photos/stories etc sent to me. However I cannot answer any more questions. Thankyou for your sustained interest in the SS Australis Homepage. Please e-mail me on this link: Contact.
