    At high res, in the top right hand corner, someone has written "page 77 S/S" (South Steyne) and there are biro crop lines in the corners. Also someone has had enough of queues and is getting out the window :)

    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Sydney Harbour Bridge, and we'd love to have this added to the group! -- Seen on your photo stream. (?)

    What a graceful vessel, and how lucky we are that she survives.

Chief officer George Todd, right, and his asistant Bob Luther explain the engine to John Rae, Jim Swan and James Wilton, on the ocean cruise to Broken Bay, South Steyne, December 1953 / Australian Women's Weekly photograph

  • GrenadierGuardsDmr said:
    South Steyne's first ocean cruise to Broken Bay was by a charter company in November 1953. The company would often cancel at short notice if there was the slightest chance of bad weather so the Port Jackson & Manly Steam Ship Company did the ocean cruises themselves after the first season. This series of Womens Weekly pictures was published in an article in the 2 December 1953 edition and is one of the first, if not the first, ocean cruises. I realise it may be the WW reporter's notes, but below the Master, Manly ferries had an Engineer, not a Chief Officer.
