The ship is shown as built before her funnel was extended and is one of five possible vessels: Encounter Bay (1969), Flinders Bay (1969), Botany Bay (1969), Moreton Bay (1969) and Discovery Bay (1969). These ships were completed between February and June 1969. Queen Victoria Street is on the right and a warehouse occupied by Westwools and W.J. Hughes Pty Ltd is on the extreme right.
