The photograph is taken off Kurraba Point and shows in the background the Manly Ferry servicing facilities established at that location. This photo, taken by Kerry Photos, shows the Port Jackson annd Manly Ferry Company's facilities from the point itself.

would have been a nice photo of a Manly ferry if those two dinghies hadn't got in the way :-)

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Great article! Our vessels curator thinks the image of BONA also appears in Sydney Sails, it would be great to find the originals. Apparently the BONA in this article is the cutter BONA, as opposed to the schooner BONA (that later became BOOMERANG - confused yet?). The schooner BONA was built in Sydney and taken to Melbourne, while the cutter BONA was racing in Sydney from about 1899. Our yachting expert David thinks there must have been a time in the 1920s when both were in Sydney and the Alberts changed the name of their schooner to BOOMERANG. (The Alberts also had two BOOMERANGs, one a motor vessel & the other the schooner). Phew!

[http://www.flickr.com/photos/51979177@N02] Wonderful wonderful find, great shots of BONA & RAWHITI - but we were also taken with some of the other shots on the page. Look familiar?

Stay tuned for more!

This photo is likely to be from the 1926 Pittwater Regatta - PITTWATER CUP. The big yachts are to race for the Pittwater Cup; This handsome trophy has been presented by the treasurer, Mr. C. A. Le Maistre Walker, who is enjoying his first year of office. The course is 16 miles, and H. Nossiter's Utiekah II. is to be on the limit mark of 21min. N. L. II. Griffin's White Wings is oh 24, J. S. Palmer's Aoma 18 J, J. R. Palmer's Brand V.... H. J. Fitzpatrick's Bona 10, and Frank Albert's Rawhiti scr. Examining the handicaps, it certainlylooks as if the race is a gift for Rawhiti, as no penalty- has been imposed on the big green boat for her four recent wins. THE YACHTSMEN. (1926, December 24).

The ferry in the middle is Lady Hampden, built 1896. From Wikipedia: "Part of the Balmain New Ferry Company fleet until that company's takeover by Sydney Ferries Ltd in 1918. Requisitioned for naval use in 1942. Sunk as target."
