Heritage Shipyard
Rozelle Bay |
 |
The Fleet’s restoration and maintenance facilities are located at the Heritage Shipyard, at Rozelle Bay.
The Fleet’s workshop is located at the shipyard and most of the Fleet’s operational vessels are normally berthed there.
The main activities at the shipyard are:
- maintenance of the fleet of operational vessels; and
- restoration of the non-operational vessels.
Much of the work is carried out, by volunteers, using traditional trade methods and materials which are no longer in daily use. The Fleet’s workshop houses all the facilities required to restore, operate and maintain the fleet of hundred-year-old heritage vessels. Much of the restoration work on the 1874 iron barque James Craig was carried out at the Heritage Shipyard.
Access to the Heritage Shipyard is through Gate 4, James Craig Road, Rozelle Bay, Rozelle, a five-minute drive across the Anzac Bridge from the centre of Sydney (map and transport details).
