Description
Photograph of three sailboats clustered together, ca.1940. Three sailboats share center, with two of their masts at close range to each other. A man in a cap stands to the far corner of the left boat, sharing the craft with three other boaters. A man in the second boat stands beneath his mast and makes to push the first sailboat away from his craft. The third boat, to the right is marked "6/37" and is manned by a person in a white cap. All three crafts sit on a mildly choppy body of water. A swatch of land can be seen to the rightmost side of the horizon.
