These guys look a little old to be the ship's crew. Wondering if they are Australian wharfies, perhaps?

beachcomber australia Great point, hadn't noticed that thanks beachcomber! You always seem to notice details like that. :-)

Having strong suspicions that this is Wharf 8/9 at Walsh Bay See restorations - www.waterway.com.au/projects.asp?id=3&pid=54&sid=...

The shape of the warehouse - slight overhang, and chequerboard woodwork is fairly distinctive. I never realized that all the wharves at Walsh Bay were different designs. See this at full blast, right hand finger wharf -

beachcomber australia being no wharf expert, I'm not really sure. I never noticed that either! That's quite cool :)

Hmmm - having doubts about this now .... I thought the pillars were there, but now it looks like an overhanging awning.

beachcomber australia The record gives Johnstons Bay as the location...but there are no references. www.dictionaryofsydney.org/natural_feature/johnstons_bay
