Welcome to the Alcan Boats web site

This web site was created to share information about the line of aluminum housecruisers built by Alcan late 1960's through early 1970's.  The boats were sold under the brands of Alcan, Alloy Manufacturing, Alwest, Chimo and Sea Villa.

I am an owner of a 1971 Alwest 370 as are my parents.  The boats are rare enough that when we see one on the water, we generally go over and say "Hi".  I will be compiling technical information about the boats and will be looking for contributions from others who have done modifications or repairs.

The information provided on this site may, or may not, be accurate.  Much of the information is being compiled from the memories of people that own these boats and have read or heard stories.  I will endeavor to find corroborating sources wherever possible.
