Well done Mr Hall ! Some time in 1931, judging from the state of the Harbour Bridge ... The HELEN B STERLING seems to be moored off Bradleys Head - you can see the lighthouse right of frame. {Grrr @ Flickr for messing up the notes!]

beachcomber australia Indeed! It's a beauty isn't it? :) We were thinking maybe November 1930..?? investigator.records.nsw.gov.au/asp/photosearch/photo.asp...

A quick Trove search for November 1930 produced this... "That six-master in the harbour is the American-owned Helen B. Sterling. She has been declared unseaworthy by the Australian authorities, and, therefore, seems doomed to rot upon her anchorage." - The Catholic Press 27/11/1930 p.4 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/106252613

I think the date is May - the end of the 'y' has overrun the active area of the negative and so not revealed. The player piano appears to be the same as in a previous picture (of Capt Milton?) but with different pctures on it.
