Selsey crabber LI49 Cuendolen at Littlehampton

The port side of the Selsey crabber Cuendolen, regd LI49, is seen from ashore at a distance of some 60m. In this negative the image of the boat is virtually indentical to that of negative P75676, but the buildings on the other side of the harbour are somewhat further to the right of the Cuendolen, the photographer having apparently moved a few feet to the left of the position adopted for the previous negative. The Cuendolen is anchored afloat in front of the Littlehampton Harbour Office. The standing and running rigging of the gaff cutter-rigged crabber are clearly delineated, and the considerable length of its overhanging boom and bowsprit is also evident.
