The Green Point Naval Boatyard was a shipyard on the southern bank of the Parramatta River at Green Point, Mortlake, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. During World War II, 20 Fairmile B motor launches were assembled from hulls pre-fabricated in England at the shipyard. For at least part of the time the Shipyard was managed by Cecil Boden, who later became well known as a designer.[1][2]
