Diving boys and their open boats close to a small ship, possibly the passenger tender Lady Cordeaux (1922), at Nassau, Bahamas.
Diving boys and their five open boats close to the side of a small passenger vessel, possibly the passenger tender Lady Cordeaux (1922), at Nassau, Bahamas. Each boat contains 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 ship. One of the boys is jumping into the water while another is hauling himself into his boat. The negative is slightly out of focus.
