Pyrmont, tall ship, Europa

The Europa is a Tall Ship from Germany which was recently moored beside Wharf 7 at Pyrmont. A number of Tall Ships from around the world made up a fleet which visited Sydney last week for the International Fleet Review to commemorate the centenary of the first entry of the Royal Australian Navy's Fleet into Sydney.
