Would be nice if the place was utilised and maintained as a valuable historic asset. Sad not.
There is nothing to do there. The site has no cafe!
Good to see again where I worked, Most interesting workplace to be.
again the government closes it down
Why did successive GOVERNMENTS let this close DISGUSTING WHAT A GREAT LEGACY AND HISTORY DAM GOVERNMENTS LETTING THINGS GO
Theater in the wild
🤣🤣🤣
My grandfather Arthur Puttock, boilermaker,died 1961 at home, worked at Cockatoo Island during World War 2 building Corvettes. He stated to me that he was on a Corvette which was taken on sea trials outside Sydney Heads, with a civilian crew theat was not armed. A Japanese submarine surfaced behind the ship which was sailed at full speed south along the coast out running this submarine, and then returned to Port Jackson. There were no injuries but for a quite concerned civilian crew.
Why has Australia given away so much of our industrial ability?. The political wisdom of our governments doesn't care about our future. We need to rethink and adjust our understanding for our future. Stop paying out money to foreign enterprises. Get the unions out of our workplaces in order to be more competitive. MAKE AUSTRALIA GREAT AGAIN!
My Dad started his indentureship as a Blacksmith in 1911 his wage was One and Sixpence per year. He worked there until he retired
Are they ? Really than acknowledge them as the slaves they were and apologise for what the British done to them
Australia had 7 million people when it was pumping out ships in WW2. Now we so slow, but we will be forced to move belatedly soon by China s actions!
Lucky you have all that tokenistic fashionable quasi-aboriginal painting to make this look like a woke joke
Spent a lot of time down there on the subs when they came in. Used to meet the boats down there when they came in and removed certain valves off the torpedo tubes to take them back to Garden Island to be re calibrated. Other times I would be down the torpedo tubes sanding gas check rings. One time we spent 6 weeks down there scraping chocks for the search and attack periscopes. Great team of blokes and we had a good time doing it as well. Used to look forward to going down there for a change. They were great days spent with an awesome crew working on the O class subs.
I love this thank you
Cockatoo Island should be the base for the new submarines.
Maritime training school.
Seriously one of Australia's most important training facilities and construction sites. It should be modernised and used for what it was designed. The history is important yes, but you could not find a better location for the dry docks etc. Getting the tradesman there would require accomodation to be built due to housing and rental costs in Sydney but the National Security of having a working dockyard would be of far greater importance the any other applications.
My husband was a submariner around this time. We have met Geoff and have become friends as members of The Submarine Association
So hold on what happened to the 29 mobs of the Darug Nation ? You had Darug men on the opera house on Australia day. You use Darug language and at this very moment apparently files and HDDs are getting wiped at Dhawaral Land Council. Nothing worse than cultural theft for gain.
My son (11 yrs old) and I camped overnight on Cockatoo a few weeks ago. We took our bikes on the ferry down Parramatta river, rode around the island for the day learning about both the convict and maritime history, pitched a tent near the power building and woke up with the best view of Sydney harbour. All for $60 dollarydoos and the cost of a ferry ride. He really got a sense of the history and importance it played in Sydney's past, and had an adventure at the same time. Thanks to Sydney Harbour Trust for making it possible. I loved it, and so did he.
During the next war we will get to see some of these places restored
I thought this was about the Island was the one of theNth west coast🙁🙁
Bob Hawke ordered the shutdown that put thousands of workers on the dole
Where is the acknowledgement of the benefits Europeans have had on past, present and future citizens of Australia? Shame to see such a proud base defamed like this.
What a great production. Such an interesting time in our history..really enjoyed these 26 minutes. Well done..😀😀
As a £10 POME who lived in Sydney for 5 years in 1970 your organisation and volunteers have done an amazing job of "sharing Sydney with the world, even though I missed it thank you
I was an apprentice boilermaker at Garden Island Dockyard who spend six months at Cockatoo Island in 1965, while there I worked on the construction of HMAS Stalwart and HMAS Torrens, it was the best experience I could have had.
Hi there I started my apprenticeship in 1978 as a boilermaker, I had 10 years working at the dock I left just before the commissioning of the HMAS Success. It was a crying shame when they closed it down, great place to learn and trade , I fondly remember taking guided tours around the yard when I was a apprentice, TAFE class schools ext , I was awarded best app boilermaker from 1st year through to 4th year, and I remember John Jeremy giving me my award, great memories, still reflect my time at Cockatoo ' THANKS '
The yard boss at the time was Steve Rafter , and in 132 shop we had old Laurie building the modules and double bulkheads for the AOR 25:59
Hi.. .My dad was an engineer on the Island & my older brother started his aprenticeship there around 1980... My dad dragged us kids along for the Launching of the HMAS Success.. i sat for hours as a kid listening to speeches lol ANYWAYS im looking now as in a couole weeks we are staying on the island for the weekend. We booked the converted fire station. Cant wait.. dejavu !
Now we build what ?
Nothing. We flip houses, ever since little johnny gave tax concessions to speculators. Why would anyone work and get taxed when you can flip houses and get tax concessions?
Well that was 26 minutes incredibly well spent. Thank you so much for posting.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING AUSTRALIA HISTORY
Delightful to see John Jeremy and others telling the story of Cockatoo. I served in the Navy from 1964 and in the following 20 years experienced many refits in Cockatoo. Later with other parties in the Defence Industry we greatly benefitted from the contributions that John Jeremy gave towards our marine engineering endeavors.
More bs from a semi!
I was a cadet on Snapper Island and went to the launch of some ships at Cockatoo Island. would love to see history of Snapper Island as well
I was trained as a boatbuilder by a man who did his time on the island. It made a vital contribution in the World Wars. Now we face the threat of another conflict. We need a good dockyard again, along with the skilled workers to build and repair ships.

If you ever wanted to feel good about Australia, then you cannot do better than this. Our maritime history has had primary significance in creating our culture and country. Thank you.
that I you you too welcome to morocco
Thank you so very much for telling the story instead of talking about it. It’s wonderful! Is there additional inside knowledge or secret business that you share with outsiders? I know these stories are knowledge networks still passing information that’s thousands of years old. And that you and your people are among the last of the guardians of that knowledge. I’m trying to find out if what I think is true: that secret business contains information about attaining higher levels of consciousness/awareness. Do you know who I might talk to regarding this?
