At some point in the next few years we would like to sail from New Zealand via Tonga via Hawaii to Kodiak and then work our way along the Alaskan coast to British Columbia.

We would apply for our visa in New Zealand. We are British.

Does anyone know if we are likely to be given 1 year visas? Any advice on the best way to go about it?

Thanks

Hi Kate, a few years ago we got a 10 visa to visit the USA, this was for one year at a time. We had to visit the American Embassy (we were in Trinadad) no problem once we had the interview etc. I believe that the boat is a separate issue.
Hope this helps. We are also British
Merry Christmas
