The captain and helmsman standing by the wheel on board the 3-masted topsail schooner Sir Winston Churchill (1966) while under sail in the Solent area. The unidentified captain is in uniform but is not wearing his cap and he is looking to port while leaning on the starboard side of the compass support. He has a moustache and is wearing metal-framed sunglasses. The helmsman is in wet weather gear and is looking down at the compass. The photographer is looking aft and up from low down just ahead of the wheel. The mizzen is set.
