Local traders in a rowing boat in Port-au-Prince Bay, Haiti

Two traders in a locally built rowing boat in Port-au-Prince Bay, Haiti. The boat has PauP. Haiti on the bow and is empty except for the two men, but would normally contain a mix of fruit, baskets and small items of furniture for sale to tourists on board a passenger cruise ship which is at anchor, but not in the picture. The photographer is probably on the ship's accommodation ladder. Five other boats are just out of the picture.
