  Circular Quay west and The Rocks in the background, from about the northern end of the 'toaster'.

  Interesting to compare with -

• beachcomber australia said:

  It seems a strange place to anchor. Anyone have any ideas about the ship?

• Dale said:

  Pax or Military? She has a line aft to the buoy/caisson, three boats alongside, another next to the foremast. Aft gunports (wardroom?) open, but no other gunports visible. Lastly is that a white ensign on the gaff peak? Might be an important visitor.

  Woo Hoo! The Great God of Google Speaks Again ... she is the JOHN DUTHIE (built Aberdeen 1864) Somebody blackpoolbeach on Flickr recently posted this tip - when using Google Chrome, open the photo in largest size, right click and select "Search Google for this image", which opens a new page with links to the same or similar photos. So when I tried it on this photo this happened - www.google.com.au/search?tbs=sbi:AMhZZivIB4ozXClmzNMiuzzV... ... and the first link to this page mcjazz.f2s.com/DuthieShipyards.htm which has this photo plus these details -

Three-masted clipper YALLAROI at a wharf with a tugboat, 1906-1923

from Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons

• beachcomber australia said:

  The YALLEROI looks in dreadful condition here, like in this 1913 New Zealand article description - paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&d=CH...

• Andy Brill said:

  The Yalleroi survived a little longer, becoming the 'Santa Caterina' in Italian hands from 1906, and was broken up in Genoa in 1923. :- www.bruzelius.info/Nautica/Ships/Merchant/Sail/Y/Yallaroi(1885).html

  beachcomber australia Andy Brill Yes you're both right! And I had seen that NZ article. Loved the 'sailor's lament' part. :)
