    (Mariposa means butterfly in Spanish) That's a very dirty tugboat belching out all the filth on the MARIPOSA's port side. Same tug as this? -

    beachcomber australia Hmmm, it's hard to tell. Although the tug seems to be tethered to different ends of the vessel, here at the stern and at the bow in the other image.

    The white ship on the far right of the photo is either the Strathnaver or Strathaird.

    Phillip A-ha! It's the two 'Strath liners' appearing again! :) Thanks PhillMono.

Nearly completed Sydney Harbour Bridge with SS MARIPOSA, February 1932

    The Mariposa arrived in Sydney on 25th February, 1932...this was the first time she'd been to Sydney. She was initially berthed at East Circular Quay, No. 2 wharf...and was later moved to West Circular Quay, No.4 wharf...from where she departed late evening on 27th February, 1932.
