Both ships have awnings rigged and their pendant numbers are C74 and A51 respectively. In the distance is the survey vessel Sutlej (1940) outboard of another similar sized ship. On the inside of the quay abreast the Delhi (1932) is the missile corvette Vijaydurg (1976). In the left foreground is the stern of the harbour passenger ferry Mouminabad, number B6895.
