The tugboat in the foreground (above) is the P.S. JUMNA, a paddlewheel steam tugboat built in 1884. It operated in Littlehampton towing sailing ships in and out of the harbor, up until 1925. [1] The JUMNA famously appeared on numerous postcards of the day, and inspired many enthusiasts to build models of her -- including this two-person miniature in Australia:

"PS Jumna, 1950" by State Library of South Australia

And I am 90% sure that lifebelt says "ORIENT GLASGOW" (see note). Apologies - getting too EXCITED. It is great to see all the detail of this wonderful ship so close up - the sailors in the bosun's chairs, the fellow scaring seagulls, etc, etc !!

beachcomber australia Glad you enjoyed! The fuller picture of Circular Quay is coming together. We agree that this is almost certainly ORIENT.

This photo was likely taken from the top of the lighthouse (in previous image). Some of the same people are in both photos. See previous image for description of the paddle-wheel steam tugboat in this photo.
