The Scone has a white staysail, topsail and mizzen sail and red foresail and mainsail. The PREEDCRETE logo is on her topsail. The Beric is a stemhead bowsprit barge and she has a white staysail and jib and the Skol Lager logo is on her red topsail. Close to the port side of the Beric is an unidentified yacht on the starboard tack and towing her tender. Her sail number looks like E692.
