Better Boating – Sharing Sydney Harbour Access Program (SSHAP)

The Sharing Sydney Harbour Access Program (SSHAP) is a joint grants program administered by the Department of Planning and funded by Department of Planning, Sydney Harbour Foreshore Authority and Maritime.

SSHAP aims to improve public access to Sydney Harbour and its tributaries for the people of and visitors to Sydney. Maritime’s contribution to SSHAP is directed specifically at water-based projects (such as jetties, pontoons, dinghy storage or inter-tidal access) that achieve this outcome.

Up to $0.5 million is available per annum for up to 50% of the total eligible cost of the proposed project from Maritime for water-based facilities.

The 26 local councils in the Sydney Harbour catchment and registered organisations, such as boating clubs, are all eligible applicants for grant funding.

Grant applications for the 2011 SSHAP funding round closed on 29 April 2011 and are now being assessed.

Applications for SSHAP funding should be submitted directly to the Department of Planning and Infrastructure.
