A starboard quarter view of the suction dredger Marco Polo (1979) berthed alongside a wharf at Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The photographer is standing on the quayside looking towards the dredger. Everything forward of its bridge on the vessel is not visible. A split hopper barge, either the Verrazzano 1800 (1979) or the Magellano 1800 (1979), is berthed outboard of Marco Polo and only the stern and mast are visible. A United Arab Emirates courtesy flag is flying from the starboard yard arm of Marco Polo.
