Contemporary account:
Any of our readers who have recently visited the Circular Quay must have been struck by the symmetrical hull, taut masts and graceful appearance of the beautiful new clipper ship ANN DUTHIE. For years past the Aberdeen clippers have retained their pride of place amongst the most celebrated ships in the Australian trade, each vessel out-rivalling her predecessor in beauty of model, strength of construction and accommodation for passengers.
