The three HYF double deck vehicular ferries shown are "Man Foo" (民富) [1950-1975] in front,  "Man Wang" (民宏) [1961-1988] in the middle, and likely "Man Lok" (民樂) [1951-1978] at the back.

The two white steamliners docked at Macau Ferry Pier in the top left are "SS Takshing" (德星) and "SS Macau" (澳門).

The anchored black bulk cargo ship named "AMPAL" appears to be a Israeli vessel registered in Haifa.
