Save the Baragoola

Bargaoola in 1964

Baragoola ("Flood Tide"), the last Australian built Manly ferry from Mort's Dockyard and Engineering at Balmain, is currently under threat of being scrapped following her sale in November 2008.

This scrapping can only go ahead if Heritage NSW is permitted to remove the heritage listing on this unique and iconic vessel.

This site and the Association have been set up with the following aims:

Prevent the heritage de-listing
Acquire the vessel
Stabilise, restore and preserve the vessel for future generations

Please feel free to browse our site and get involved in the fight to save the Baragoola. If you can help in any way, please contact us and participate in our ongoing campaign to preserve the last Australian built classic Manly ferry afloat and still on Sydney Harbour.

For recent images that show the state of the Baragoola today, see this special gallery.
