Liberated by the vastness of open ocean, bound only by our commitment to Earth and one another, we live a life on the high seas. We drop anchor by lost islands and share friendship with its people.

Since 2004, we have hosted hundreds of volunteers from all walks of life on extensive journeys to all continents, both polar regions, and countless islands in-between. We strive to create a sustainable model of communal living that aids each members personal journey and actively makes a positive contribution to our planet.

Our community

Captain Clemens and Sage, with children Rhian 13y, Chloe 11y and Rafael 1y, permanently live aboard. They are joined by an ever-changing cast of characters from all walks of life for extensive journeys to all seven continents.

On Infinity everyone is family and that means we go through thick and thin. We share cost and profit, hardship and joy, giving and receiving, work and recreation.

We have an infinite assortment of shortcomings.

We are lively, uninhibited, eccentric, intimate, open-minded, caring, imperfect and at times obnoxious.

Our kids play, run, laugh, scream, explore, ask, climb, swim, cry, touch, talk and poo and pee. Adults observe, learn, listen and step in with guidance in case someone gets hurt.

We film our extraordinary adventures and the unique social dynamics of crammed community in the demanding reality of sea life in close quarters.
