Auxiliary boats are visible behind them which are each labeled "Seattle" large pipes and extended ropes are also observable. A large sign is attached to the rail of the second ship which reads: "Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce". In the far left background, a large house is noticeable sitting by a body of water.
