Liveaboard facilities in Darwin

Discuss your stay before you arrive

If you would like to stay aboard during your boatyard visit, include that in your first enquiry. Tell us your vessel details, intended dates, how many people would be staying and the work you are planning. Liveaboard arrangements and availability need to be confirmed for your visit, so check with the team before booking travel or setting a maintenance schedule.

The essentials around your project

The yard provides water and power, with a ladder supplied, as well as laundry and bathroom facilities. Ask about the practical arrangements for connecting services and accessing facilities during your stay. If you have particular requirements, raise them early so you know what can be accommodated. Clear expectations make it easier to plan both the work and day-to-day life aboard.

Give yourself a workable schedule

Think about how maintenance will affect using the boat while it is ashore. Some jobs may limit access to the cabin or make normal routines difficult. Discuss the intended work with the yard and with anyone carrying it out, and plan around those interruptions. Let the team know if your project timeline changes or if you need to discuss extending the stay.

A Darwin base for time ashore

Our family business is located on Colivas Road, East Point, Fannie Bay. When you enquire, combine your lift, hardstand and liveaboard questions so the team can consider the whole visit. The swimming pool offers a place to cool down, while having essential facilities at the yard helps keep the everyday practicalities close to your project. Confirm the available arrangements directly before your visit.
