Venue Access
The access point to The Art Boat is from Pontoon B, Clem Jones Promenade, South Bank. There is cement paved path which descends from the South Bank promenade to boarding ramp. There is a ‘floating’ ramp which connects the cement path to a 2.4 metre square platform. This ramp is generally angled between 10 and 15% gradient. This can be variable depending on the height of the tide at time of boarding.
There are three ramps that then connect to get you onto the boat. Please see the diagram for a visual representation and dimensions. On boarding The Art Boat accessibility platform there is a sharp right-hand turn and a limited turning circle. Once on board the boat, the disabled access bathroom is a portable bathroom that is 2.4 metres square on the outside. It has a handrail.
