To its left is another sailboat marked with a star atop a "427" manned by two male sailors. Left of center is another sailboat bearing the number 213 on its mast as well as a single star. Boats 164 and 37[?] lie left of center, while boats 123, 364, 455 and 423 are in the back to the right. At the rightmost corner of the background is a small watercraft bearing four people. In the distance is the shoreline and a strip of houses beneath a line of utility poles.
