Empire Sandy (1942) under full sail in Toronto Harbour.

A slightly distant view starboard bow view of the Empire Sandy (1942), a deep-sea tug converted to a three-masted schooner, under full sail on port tack. One of the Toronto Island ferries is in the background.

Ivy Sharp had a day of leisure in Toronto before flying back to England. She recorded nothing about Toronto but stated: 'My return to my flat was indeed a pleasure, but I am nevertheless very pleased to have experienced the north-west passage.'
