A two masted, Bahia registered sailing coaster anchored off a sandy shore at Bahia, Brazil, with a man standing in the water by the boat's transom carrying a sack and a bundle of cargo for loading on board. Another man is standing on the transom ready to take the bundle and sack to stow them aboard with other cargo. The boat has a flat transom and large wooden rudder. A stone breakwater is in the background.
