Text on Flickr: Is this ferry boat to Jordan or Yau Ma Tei?

The ferry Man Chung was built by the Hong Kong and Whampoa Dock Company in 1925.

Round the Island excursion ferry

In the 1960s the Hong Kong & Yaumati Ferry Company ran Saturday afternoon excursions Round-The –Island that were very good value at HK$2.50 for a two and a half hour trip. The vessel set out from the Central piers and followed the north coast of the island. When reaching the Lei Yu Mun Gap if there was an ocean swell outside the harbour things could get very interesting.

Ferry to Hong Kong

1959

The supposedly authorative large format book titled "Early Hong Kong Transport" by Cheng Po Hung and published by the University of Hong Kong has the above picture on page 36 captioned as being the S.S. Fa Tsan of 1919. However, this vessel is actually a film mock-up used in the 1959 movie "Ferry to Hong Kong". I have just watched the DVD. The quality of the colour image should have given the game away to the picture compiler. The paddle wheel housings are definately fakes added to an existing vessel for the film.
