The passenger motor launch Dorothy R (fl. 1930) under way at Nassau, Bahamas.

A starboard side view, taken from ahead of the beam, of the passenger motor launch Dorothy R (fl. 1930) under way in the habour at Nassau, Bahamas. She is wearing the red ensign. Three crew are on the foredeck along with four minstrels who are in costume and wearing straw hats with bobbles. They are playing guitars, a banjo and a ukelele. A sign on the cabin roof reads "Glass Bottom Sea Garden & Beach". The lighthouse on the west end of Paradise Island and a single funnelled passenger cruise ship are out of focus in the background.
