Those young ladies could be yachties?

Andy Brill Andy we found an image of Mrs Stuart Doyle crowning the Queen of the Harbour on Clark Island in 'Sailing' magazine, vol 7, no 14, January 1931. In the photograph many of the same ladies appear, dressed in the same clothes. SMH has an article on the 1931 Queen of the Harbour comp.
Andy Brill said:
Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons Thanks anmm. The Queen of the Harbour looks like a nautically-inspired dress/beauty competition. "27 neatly-attired young ladies" indeed!

Any idea which ship this might be?
Dale said:
In Sydney Harbour, rather than at sea.

Evidently she was originally the CYPROMENE, a British wool clipper ship. Built in Southampton, UK 1878 and broken up in 1937.
