Both holds have tarpaulin covers. Her lug sails are stowed fore and aft and her masts above the booms are out of the picture. Long poles are stowed on either side of the forward hold. The photographer was at Penang from 28 February to 7 March 1938. Negatives numbers P34052 to P34054 inclusive were taken on board the same vessel.
