Summary

Bow view of 'P.S. Mayho' at river bank, with group of shooters on the upper decks, and their catch hanging on the railing. A researcher has provided the following information: William Patey, the man standing on the top deck on the left, was the owner of the Mayho (originally named 'Julia' before he purchased her) and he used to cart wood to the Renmark Trust for many years before he sold it to the Renmark Trust, who then changed her name to Ero after Mr E.R. Olorenshaw. The trust continued to use her for many years and today she sits on the bottom of the river near Rufus.
