Unidentified Yacht
A 12x10 negative. A distant starboard bow view, taken from wide off the bow, of an unidentified yacht under sail in Gravesend Reach, River Thames. She has a standing lug rig with a gaff topsail, a foresail and a jib and she is on the starboard tack. She has a cabin with a cockpit abaft it and there are four men on board. Her shrouds are of a very unusual rigid criss-cross type. Tilbury fort is in the background. This yacht is also depicted in negatives numbers G16, G1153 and G1288.
