After 40 years in the same location in Crows Nest, the iconic Boat Books Sydney, Australia’s largest chart agent and specialised marine book store, has moved.

Don’t be alarmed as they haven’t moved too far and will be serving their devoted customers at their new and improved location at Ground Floor, 38 Oxley St in St Leonards. They moved just three minutes down the road and those customers that love to come in to browse books or charts can continue to do so.



The new place is now concentrated in one floor with charts and books near each other for ease of browsing and planning.



There is free two-hour parking just across the road and plenty of metered parking around the block. They are also just a short walk from St Leonards train station and a few meters from the Pacific Hwy with all its bus stops.

For more information call on 1300 BOATBOOKS (1300 262 826) or visit website.
