A lascar seaman holding the berthing rope of motor tender A from the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cruise ship Viceroy of India (1929) alongside a wooden slipway at Aandalsnes, Norway. Another lascar is using a boathook to hold the tender against the slipway. A local boy is near the end of the slipway and the Viceroy of India is anchored in the background.
