"1887" - Crikey, that's an oldie and a goodie! I wonder if it was a slip-of-the-pen for 1888? Very easy to do at the start of the year. There are multiple articles about the ORIZABA as Flagship for the Centennial Regatta in 1888 (on 27 January), but none for 1887. Hmmm ...
Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
beachcomber australia Indeed, I researched it to make sure because our records had 1887 as well. But IBERIA was flagship that year, so yes, your suggestion that it was mislabelled is more likely. And yes, I think we've all made that mistake eh? :P But thanks for pointing out the inscription, I hadn't noticed it!

I hate to be too picky but this is from Dawes Point Battery (underneath the Harbour Bridge southern approach), rather than from Observatory Hill..

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] That's worth knowing. What do you think for a latest date? [Eeek! - Flickr has gone all funereal for its latest look]

beachcomber australia [http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] No not too picky at all, in fact I questioned the description in our records when I saw it too. :) Thanks also quasymody for the guide! I'm thinking it doesn't look later than 1940. Interesting new look for Flickr!
