These works will impact vessel traffic entering and transiting within the marina. However, fairways and access to all existing jetties and the boat ramp within the marina will be maintained at all times where possible.
Please refer to the link below for a diagram of the works:
Diving operations will also take place during these works. The International Code Flag ‘A’ will be exhibited whilst diving operations are underway.
All vessels taking part in these works will display shapes and lights in accordance with the Prevention of Collisions at Sea Regulations 1983 at all times. Operators will monitor Marine VHF Channel16 during operating hours. For further information please contact site supervisor David on 0417 929 153.
Mariners are advised to navigate with caution when transiting inside Hillarys Boat Harbour during these works and keep well clear of the above operations.
The works, including piling operations, will be conducted Monday to Friday between 7am and 6pm using various propelled and non-propelled barges and support vessels as required. The barges will transit throughout the marina from the laydown area inside the northern breakwater.
These works will take place in a staged approach at multiple jetties concurrently, and include demolition of existing jetties and construction of new replacement floating jetties A, E, F, G, H and J. Each respective works area will be closed whilst works are in progress
The works are divided into six stages as follows:
• Stage 1: Demolition and construction of Jetty A Fingers & Jetty A Walkway (from 23/01/23 – 15/06/23).
• Stage 2: Demolition of existing Jetty A Walkway between Jetty E and Jetty D (from 22/02/23 to 04/10/23)
• Stage 3: Demolition of Old Jetty J/H & construction of Jetty E/J (from 13/03/23 to 04/10/23).
• Stage 4:
o Demolition/Construction of Old Jetty F & New Jetty F (start on 02/10/23 – 27/11/23)
o Concrete panels between Jetty D and Jetty C (23/10/23 – 30/10/23)
• Stage 5: Demolition/Construction of Old Jetty G & New Jetty H/G/F (start on 30/10/23 – 20/02//24).
• Stage 6: Demolition of existing Jetty A Walkway
o Concrete panels between Jetty B and B0 (from 14/12/23 to 15/03/24).

Mariners are advised that due to shifting sands associated with Tern Island at the Bent Street Boat Ramp, the 4 inner Port and Starboard Buoys 3, 4, 5 & 6 have been removed from this area to avoid being inundated by sand.
The outer set of Port and Starboard buoys 1 & 2 will remain as charted.
Mariners are advised to exercise caution whilst navigating through this area and should not rely solely on the two (2) lit navigational buoys outside of Tern Island for safe navigation past any sand hazard or shallow water to the boat ramp.

Warning: Bent St Channel (Safety Bay) Encroaching Sandbar
Mariners are advised that the entrance channel to Bent St Boat Ramp (Safety Bay) is subject from time to time by the encroaching Tern Island sand bar.
The Bent Street boat ramp is currently open however, mariners are advised to exercise caution whilst navigating through this area and should not rely solely on the two (2) lit navigational buoys outside of Tern Island for safe navigation past any sand hazard or shallow water to the boat ramp.
Skippers are reminded to keep a proper lookout and safe speed at all times.
Alternative boat ramps can be accessed at Palm Beach, Point Peron and Port Kennedy (Southern Warnbro Sound)
