A slightly distant starboard bow view of the spritsail barge Ethel Maud (1889) at a motor yacht rally at Maidstone on the River Medway, Kent. She is berthed on the east bank of the river near the Archbishop's Palace and the motor yacht Boletta (fl.1980) is alongside her. The photographer is looking north-by-west across the river from the river walk showing other motor yachts berthed alongside the river banks. Many people are on the river bank in the foreground, including a woman holding a number of balloons. Negatives numbers PM2441/2CN to PM2442/11CN inclusive were taken on the same occasion.
