Steamer, likely to be SS ARCHER as flagship at the Pittwater Regatta

  • beachcomber australia said:
    I bet that is a flagship for the Pittwater Regatta. It looks very Pittwater-ish, rather than Harbour-ish.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    SS NAMOI or ARCHER or ?? See 'bridges' -
  • beachcomber australia said:
    I think SS ARCHER because of that large cylinder (a boiler?) behind the bridge. But it could be another ship altogether.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    If this is the SS ARCHER then it was the 1925 Pittwater Regatta held on Boxing Day 26/12/1925. Read All About It - including several familiar names of people and boats - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16275773 The Captain of the SS ARCHER was T. W. Banks, and Committee members listed - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16262438

    beachcomber australia My thoughts exactly - it has a definate Pitwatter feel to it. At first I thought the vessel was GWYDIR, but I think ARCHER is much more likely, especially now you have spotted the name! Thank you :)
