What plane am I?

• JKClassic said:

  Curtiss? Looks a lot like the original curtiss with floats!

• flickrdownldr said:

  The single narrow float points toward Curtiss (or a copy thereof) - not all of the various versions were well photographed and there is at least one I know they had no photos of in the books on Curtiss I have read.

• Stig Jarlevik said:

  As said, Curtiss never seemed to use such a V-strut arrangement to attach the central float Stig

  Evidently the accident happened on 31/12/1918 - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/15818215
  
  This photo is likely on 6/1/1919 - trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/15818947
  
  CREMORNE FERRY SERVICE.
  The Cremorne ferry service, which has been disorganised during the past week, owing to the sinking of the pontoon at the Cremorne wharf, will be resumed to-day [7/1/1919].
  The pontoon has been refloated, and a temporary structure, which will be utilised until the damaged one is repaired, was placed into position yesterday.

  Thanks beachcomber australia - it's quite a sight
