Sydney Heritage Fleet is a museum that preserves maritime history. The Fleet's 600 volunteers work not only on restoration, but crew the unique operational heritage vessels. On offer are Sydney Harbour Tall Ship Square-rig Sailing Adventures, charters on Sydney Harbour, Sydney Harbour Secret Tours, Fish 'n' Ship Tours, scout sleepovers, Private and Corporate Events, Charters, cruises and Weddings aboard James Craig (1874), Lady Hopetoun (1902), Waratah (1902), Boomerang (1903), Protex (1908) and Harman (1947). Our current major restoration project is the steamer John Oxley (1927).
