Hi Lynne

This has got muddled . Wasnt a ferry but a
pleasure sailing ship ' Splendora' hired
from Bush's Boat shed. Were 22 pople on board
. Miss MOON of Kenneth St Randwick was one
of those who drowned when this boat capized
near Clark Island, Sydney Harbour

search for such accidents in Sydney

Dont think there are any web site for such
events
