So I'm looking to crew on a boat headed from New Zealand to Australia, but was wondering how long that passage usually takes, or if there is a usually? I suppose it depends on the ship and conditions, but any rough ideas? Or any other advise for a fellow planning to walk the docks and hang out in the sea front bars hoping to join a ship going that way? BTW, if you are going that way, I am available any time after the 4th of March.

Depends on where to where. I've done Wellington to Sydney in 8 days on a 67 footer.
