Notice to Members
22 November 2020
It has been a busy year for the Boatshed and Waterfront. Demand for trades such as shipwrights, painters and engineering has been high since February and we have been running at full capacity since then. Staff and sub-contractors very much appreciate the business and the support from the RSYS membership.
Due to the high demand and our large work list leading in to Christmas, our tradespeople and sub-contractors are unable to take on any new jobs until mid-January 2021. We still have some slots available for anti fouling and detailing in December, but they are filling fast.
The Boatyard will shut down for 2020 on Friday 18th December for a well-deserved break. We will be open for bookings from Monday 11th January 2021. Tender service and fuel will be available every day except for Christmas Day during this period.
If you would like to speak to the team to organise works for 2021 please don’t hesitate to get in contact with Ned or Louise on 02 9017 0161.
Many thanks,
Ned and the Waterfront Team.
