Duyfken at the Swan Brewery landing


The Duyfken 1606, a replica was made of this small sailing ship in 1999 by the Fremantle Maritime Museum, on the 400th aniversary of the original it made a 9 month voyage 12000 km around Australia .

On my 64th birthday in 2004 my wife took me to the old Swan Brewery for lunch , and I took photo's of the Duyfken tied up to the landing stage, the city of Perth on the Swan river is in the back ground
