  • Dale said:
    20274 has different ports, has Liverpool, and Mersey on stern. Scrollwork is painted. Perhaps it is the same ship after/before a refit?
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    Dale Great spotting! That's a bit confusing, 00020274 could be a later photograph given there are more embellishments.
  • Dale said:
    The porthole locations aft of the mizzen mast stays differ Do you have any more images that have a view of the stern?

Crew of MERSEY undertaking repairs

    The distinctive terrace of houses on High Street, Millers Point (see note) - GoogleMapsStreetView goo.gl/maps/IrdPj , Put the photo at one of the wharves at east side of Darling Harbour (McLean's Wharf?).
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia This MERSEY ship is quite interesting. First we have missing embellishments i.e. see comments here On board MERSEY with cadets and ladies at stern rail
    Then it's different locations. It's possible they moored at Neutral Bay, but completed repairs near Darling Harbour...

    Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons Indeed. I am always surprised to find out just how long ships stayed in Sydney - weeks, sometimes months. Moving around the harbour for various activities. The Mersey seems to have been in Sydney until the end of February 1912. A party at Dalgetty's wharf - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/15310576 . And the outward cargo - "84 bales of basils, 16,010 bags of wheat, 35,800 fishplates, 2156 rails and pieces, and 2863 bales of wool." - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/15313955

12 footer COMMONWEALTH on Sydney Harbour

  • Ian Smith said:
    This is Commonwealth, a 10 footer built by Norman Wright Snr in Brisbane in 1906. She was sold to Sydney in 1924. She visited Sydney at least once for a National Championship in 1912, but this photo is likely to be when she raced for the Balmain Dinghy Sailing Club after 1924.
