'Tribal Warrior' moored in Blackwattle Bay with view of Sydney city skyline behind, 2009

Description

Unique IDA-01160154SeriesPatricia Baillie Photographs, 2002-2019Date30th June 2009Date qualifierexactFormatPhotograph - DigitalDescriptionView looking east from Blackwattle Bay Park of the 'Tribal Warrior'. 'Tribal Warrior' is a gaff-rigged ketch (originally named 'Mina'). It is the oldest surviving timber working boat in the country. Designed by Tsugitaro Furuta, it was built in 1899 in the Torres Strait Islands. The boat already had a strong connection for Australia’s First Peoples, as it came with a long history of many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders working aboard it in the pearling grounds of Western Australia and the Torres Strait Islands. The Sydney Fish Markets, Hanson concrete works (demolished 2020) and city buildings, including Sydney Tower and the MLC Centre [25 Martin Place] are visible in the background.
