"Fully serviced yard operated by boating people"
The RPAYC has operated a slipway for its members since 1952. In 2007, the club invested in its redevelopment and, after a successful opening, Pittwater's newest and most modern boatyard now includes:
- A hardstand for up to 10 boats.
- Custom built cradles and cradle carrier.
- 120 000 litre rain-water catchments.
- Replacement of a large mast desk (which houses a 1000 Kg crane)

RPAYC Slipway over the years has now become Pittwaters modern Boatyard

Boatyard – FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
What is included in your antifoul package?
Package inclusions: lift, waterblast, light wetrub, antifoul (we spray 2 full coats & a 3rd around the leading edges & waterline), 2 days on the hardstand, launch, environment levy & a complimentary acid was on the topsides
Antifoul options: International Paint Longlife Extra, Altex No5 (Devo),10% for International Paint Micron Extra
How much antifoul do you spray onto my boat?
We spray 2 full coats & a 3rd around the leading edges & waterline
Do you deliver vessels?
We drive vessels from the Clubs marina or from the work berths located near the travelift. We give you a call the day before your lift to advise of your lift time. If you deliver your boat we offer complimentary berthing. Please advise at the time of your booking that you will require a berth and the Club to drive it around on the day of lift.
Do you tow vessels instead of drive them?
No. Unless the vessel does not have an engine we insist on driving the vessel as it is too dangerous to tow vessels into the narrow travelift pen. If you don’t want your vessel driven by our staff you will need to deliver it yourself.
Do you have contact details for a Marine Surveyor?
The most Frequented Marine Surveyors at The RPAYC are:

I need to have my boat surveyed for insurance; can I be lifted just for that? I don’t need an antifoul.

How do I pay if I can’t be there on the day of launch?
At the time of booking we will send you a confirmation letter (email/fax) and attached will be an agreement form.

The Club does charge a 2% surcharge for credit cards however we do offer Bpayment or eftpos as an alternative, as long as we have your credit card on file. We send you a detailed invoice on day of launch and offer you 5 days to complete the transfer via Bpay. If we haven’t received your payment within this period, we will then charge your supplied credit card.
Can I do the work myself?
As a member you are more than welcome to anitfoul your boat yourself. Please email the boatyard office for availability.

Can I do my own waterblasting?
No. The Club staff are the only ones that operate the water blaster and we don’t allow water blasters onto the yard as it disturbs the boats cradled next to you.
I would like to stay a week at The Alfreds Marina after my antifoul.
We offer a complimentary berth before lift and after launch for 1-2 days either side of your booking. If you would like to stay longer please contact the Waterfront Office for a casual berth on the marina. They are contactable on 9998 3741 or

| "Boatyard Staff are constantly raising the standard for courteous and helpful service" Stephen Ainge |
| "I have to complement the yard staff on the superb job they did and with some horrible conditions thrown in. Shanta & Jeff are brilliant. Take care" Lindsay Hannan |
| "I think Jeff does an excellent job & goes that little bit further to be helpful as well as share his experience & advice. Shanta is a pleasure to deal with in the office." - Bruce Hogan |
| "Excellent service from all involved. Please pass on my thanks to Jeff and the boys." |
| "Very good set up and will use in the future. None of the nonsense at other yards. Jeff knows the game!" Syd Fischer |
| "Greatly appreciate and value the ability to work on the boat myself during the weekend. Very impressed with both the lift and yard setup as well as the skill and professionalism of the whole team. Will certainly recommend to other CCCA members and friends" |
| "I have just completed the annual lift & repaint of my boat Southern Cross at the new Alfred's facility. I would like to commend you and your team for the operation of this facility. From the time I made the first contact until the boat was returned to the water this morning I found the staff to be efficient, courteous and above all professional in their actions. This made a difficult job much easier." Maurice Byrnes |
| "The staff were extremely helpful and cooperative I could not fault the service, and congratulate the Club for a slipway to be proud of. Also the office staff as well as the yard staff ran a very smooth operation." |
|
"Although I did my own work the yard staff were incredibly helpful and willing to give advice whenever I needed it."
|
| "I would like to commend the Club on having Shanta as the person dealing with boatyard customers. She is very customer-orientated and does a wonderful job!" |
|
"All the staff involved were friendly, helpful and efficient. As the job developed and became more complex (when additional problems were found), Shanta and Jeff, in particular, performed faultlessly. Communication was excellent. Well done to all."
|
| "I was very impressed with the business like approach, the punctuality and service, the cleanliness of the boatyard and the helpfulness of all the staff. Full marks to all concerned." |
|
"Thanks for the good job, easy to deal with, informed along the way, good advice given."
