Description
Photograph of six speedboats racing on the water as a large crowd watches from the shore, [s.d.]. A few people in a small vessel labeled "10-A" race ahead of five other boats, each leaving a trail of whitewater in their wake. In the background, a large crowd can be seen beside rows of automobiles. Behind them, the bases of several oilrigs sit amidst a cluster of house-like structures and rounded tanks.
