A brigantine rigged steam yacht is between the ship and the harbour pier in the middle distance and the pier is thronged with people. the photographer is looking west-north-west from inside the harbour and in the left foreground are a number of local small sailing craft tied up to a low quay, while a local boatman rows another boat towing a kayak or canoe on the left. A large steam powered harbour tender or tug with the letters MA on the bow is secured alongside a quay at the right of the photograph.
