Default Sydney Harbour - Hegarty ferries

Can anyone tell me if these still operate around the inner harbour from Circular Quay to MacMahons Point, Lavender Bay and Kirribilli?

I have searched the internet but got conflicting information.

Don't know about Hegarty Ferries (were you particaulry interested in that company?!? ) but the ferries still operate regualrly from circular quay doing trips to Mahons Point and Milsons Point etc as well as Kirribilli and Neutral Bay on a seperate service.

Services run generally from about 5.30am until 11pm and fairly regualrly (every half hour or so).

I used to use them all the time and they are a pretty cheap way of commuting around the city! Great on a nice sunny day too!!

Here is the website for Sydney ferries:

It was particularly that company because they used to call in at Jeffrey Street and Beulah Street wharves when we lived there, much closer than Kirribilli Wharf to our flat. The ferries themselves were nicer too - smaller and very traditional rather than the more modern ones used by Sydney Ferries. I've googled more since I posted and I think they stopped operating in 2003 but would be good to have confirmation from someone local.

There are quite a few smaller ferry/water taxi companies so they may well exist still! NOt sure to be honest though!
