The photographer is at the stern looking aft showing the harbour tug Mirador (1921) acting as steerage tug. Following in the background is another tug which is possibly the Matador (1921) and a third tug remains in the basin. The building of the Yacht Club Argentino is on the left of the picture and the 120 metres high Kavanagh Building in the Retiro district is in the centre background.
