History


Prior to 2007, Sydney Ferries and its predecessors operated a ferry service from Circular Quay to Woolwich calling at Balmain East, Balmain, Birchgrove and Greenwich Point with limited services calling at Milsons Point and McMahons Point. Cockatoo Island had been served by direct ferries to and from Circular Quay at shift changeover time at Cockatoo Island Dockyard until the latter closed in 1992.
In April 2007, Sydney Ferries began operating limited services to Cockatoo Island after the island reopened for tourists. Services from Circular Quay served Cockatoo Island after leaving Greenwich Point and then proceeded to Woolwich where they terminated. By December 2010, the calling pattern had been altered with ferries from Greenwich Point proceeding to Woolwich and then to Cockatoo Island to terminate.
When Sydney Ferries introduced route codes in October 2013, the Cockatoo island services were grouped with the Parramatta River ferry services as the F3. On 26 November 2017, the Cockatoo Island service was separated from the Parramatta River service and numbered F8.
The service is usually operated by First Fleet class ferries.
