Two boeier yachts near the shore

In the foreground, a bow view of a boeier yacht close to the shore with her mainsail and jib hoisted for drying. Several figures are standing by her. Further off the shore on the left there is another boeier yacht with her sails lowered. There are two ships in the background and land in the distance.

This is an unsigned pencil and was drawing by the Elder.
