A distant starboard side view, taken from abaft the beam, of the Walmer lifeboat Civil Service No. 4 (1896) under sail in The Downs, Kent. She has a single gaff sail hoisted and the hull of the boat is hidden by the swell of the water. The horizon is not level. A note on the negative says that the photographer is using Camera A and that the lifeboat is being sailed by Alfred Mason.
