The passenger tender Lady Cordeaux (1922) heading for the harbour at Nassau, Bahamas.

A slightly distant port quarter view, taken from fine off the stern, of the passenger tender Lady Cordeaux (1922) manoeuvring away from a passenger cruise ship anchored off the harbour entrance at Nassau, Bahamas. Two diving boys are standing on the rubbing strake at the stern of the tender. The photographer is looking along the hull of the cruise ship from the promenade deck showing six open boats, each containing a man with a sculling oar over the transom and a diving boy who is waiting to take to the water to retrieve any coins thrown in by passengers on board the cruise ship. One of the diving boys is already in the water swimming towards his boat. A vertical format negative.
