A port side view, taken from well abaft the beam, of the spritsail barge Victor (1895) under sail in the Thames Estuary. She is sailing on a flat calm, almost windless, day and has a white jib, a blue and white striped staysail and all her other sails are red. She has the Kent Life logo on her topsail. She has a diamond shape daymark on the port yard and this usually indicates that the vessel is under tow but that is not the case in this instance. The top of her mast is out of the picture. Negative number PCT14363 was taken on the same occasion.
