    This looks like the Corinth Canal in Greece.
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    Hi art1024,
    Thanks for suggesting the Corinth Canal. We have updated our museum records accordingly. During their world circumnavigation on yacht SIRIUS, the Nossiters stopped at Crete and Cephalonia and then passed through the Corinth Canal.

    Nice shot of the history, but he is on a donkey not a mule.

    Good description of the SPRAY in Newcastle in September 1896 (first Australian port-of-call) - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/14068752 , and an unloved photo in the CCUN photostream -

    He moored first at North Harbour for a few days, and a welcoming party towed him into Sydney - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/14070535 , including boorish behaviour from crowd on the LADY MANNING. On public view at Manly Pier in October 1896 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/14070913 Shark catching! Melbourne January, 1897 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/14082903 [putting the story together ...]

    beachcomber australia It's a great story isn't it? His life reads like a classic boys adventure novel - sharks and all. Did you see he married while in Australia in 1871? (Hence the ladies by the name of 'Walker' who were described as relatives in the first article.) Love that the first article recorded both the boorish behaviour of LADY MANNING's passengers, as well as each round of applause!

    Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons I should read his book rather than piece together possibly innaccurate newspaper reports! Are there more SPRAY photos to come?
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    beachcomber australia Sadly no :( I couldn't find any further images of Slocum or SPRAY - well at least where they are identified. You can find his book online here, complete with oddly robotic audio!
