Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons posted a photo:

In this image a crowd of people are at the end of the jetty where a crane is hoisting a load of people in a square container across to the ship. The bow of the ship, with fore auxiliary mast and funnel, is all that is visible of the ship in centre right of photograph. Background of picture is out to sea. Written in the lower right hand corner is the text: 'CAVANBAR at Coff's Harbour Jetty PC Rook Photo'. An image in the collection of the State Library of NSW (see comment below) shows a similar scene of the CAVANBAR at Coffs Harbour in 1908 with an explanatory note that reads: 'this is the way they land and embark passengers at the Jetty. The boat is moored by anchors about 10 or 12ft away from the jetty and rises and falls with the swell of the sea, sometimes rising 15ft or more so you see they cannot use a gangway.'

SS CERAMIC was built in 1912 and operated for the White Star Line on the Australian trade run. It only operated on this route for one year before becoming a troopship during World War I. After the war it once more traded on the passenger route between Liverpool and Australia. It was requisitioned once more during World War II for war services. In 1942, the ship was en route to Australia when it was torpedoed in the Atlantic Ocean by a German U-boat. Of the 657 people on board, only one survived.

This photo is part of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s Samuel J. Hood Studio collection. Sam Hood (1872-1953) was a Sydney photographer with a passion for ships. His 60-year career spanned the romantic age of sail and two world wars. The photos in the collection were taken mainly in Sydney and Newcastle during the first half of the 20th century.
