Yes you are there are public moorings but are time limited, you can also go up the Yarra a fair way just governed by the height of the bridge at south bank. There are also some restaurants near JEFF shed that have moorings for diners.

Sure are, I went all the way up to Crown Casino about 2 months ago for a sticky beak. It's (the City) interesting from a different perspective and beautiful at night.
Just bear in mind it's a 5knot limit so can take a while there and back.

Yeah, from memory up to the west gate bridge is 10 knots and past there it's 5 knots as far as you can get. The bridge at Crown was too low for my boat. Might have been barred off too I think ??
Again from memory I think it was about 35-40 minutes each way ?

Yep. Its a nice thing to do. We even pulled up to the resturant that faces the river at flinders st station and had a meal...you can watch over the boat from the restaurant. Then you can go upstream into burnley to see the big houses that have their own private jetties on the yarra.
