A distant fair quality starboard quarter view of the spritsail rugged general cargo barge Genesta (1903) under sail in a strong north-north-east wind in the Thames estuary during the Thames Barge Match. She is on the port tack and another barge in the distance is on a starboard tack and is crossing ahead of the Genesta's course. An unidentified cutter rigged racing yacht, seen from off her port beam, is also crossing ahead of the Genesta (1903).
