HMS NEW ZEALAND at naval buoy number 1 Farm Cove

from Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons

Trainiac said:
Appears to have all its wartime modifications, the larger bridge structure the most obvious. On its post war first visit to New Zealand I'd say.
Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
Trainiac I think you are right, HMS NEW ZEALAND spent some time in Sydney in mid-1919 during a world tour, and that is probably the time that this image was taken.
Horatio J. Kookaburra said:
This will be July 1919 when NEW ZEALAND brought Admiral Lord Jellicoe to Australia in the course of his world tour preparing a report for the British Admiralty on the future of the Dominion Navies [that is, largely whether they should be developed as national navies or enfolded in an Empire defence arrangement as branches of the Royal Navy. A very wise, far-seeing and decent man, Jellicoe recommended the former]. [Please note I am searching for a companion image here where I brain-fadedly identified the Indefatigable Class battlecruiser - with Union Jack on her flagstaff - as sistership HMAS AUSTRALIA I] during the Prince of Wales visit in May 1920. It's not. There were other clear indicators, the presence of newly-arrived submarine J5, to show it was July 1919]. .

She was on her second visit, and cost £1,415,567 [!]. Details of the MONGOLIA (1923) P&O - www.poheritage.com/Content/Mimsy/Media/factsheet/93816MON...
beachcomber australia said:
On her maiden voyage in July 1923, she was pinned against the same wharf (where the Opera House now is) by gale force westerly winds, not being able to depart for four hours. Read All About It - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/16080993 .

beachcomber australia Thanks Beachcomber :) we posted this pic in response to a comment on an earlier pic of a vessel that was suggested to be MONGOLIA
Phillip said:
It's interesting that the ships operating the branch line of the P&O service were painted with dark upperworks - they must have been hot ships in the summer! Cheers, Phill
beachcomber australia said:
Phillip At the time it seems that all P&O liners had this dark paintwork. Can't find any website which explains it. Can anyone help, please?
