A slightly distant port bow view of the Peninsular & Oriental Steam Navigation Company cargo liner Strathmuir (1971) arriving alongside a wharf at Bahrain. She has a substantial deck cargo of containers and Land Rover motor vehicles. The tug Al Rahib (1974) is pushing against her starboard bow. The ship's bow mooring line is hanging over the bow and is about to be taken up by a mooring launch with M1 on her bow. A number of cargo ships are berthed alongside the quay in the background and many ships are anchored beyond the breakwater. Transparencies numbers P64172CT to P64196CT were taken on the same occasion.
