A starboard side view of six spritsail barges under sail in Long Reach, River Medway, Kent.
A starboard side view of six spritsail barges under sail in Long Reach, heading into Kethole Reach, River Medway, Kent. They are all staysail barges and the barge nearest the camera is the Mirosa (1892) with a Blue Circle Cement logo on her topsail. Off her port bow is a barge which has a logo on her topsail comprising a circle with the letters ah in it. Further to port is a barge with a white X on the topsail. This is the logo of R. & W. Paul Ltd and the barge is almost certainly the Ena (1906). Kingsnorth Power Station is in the left background.
