She is brig rigged with three yards on each mast and is flying the blue peter. She has awnings rigged by the bridge and on the poop. A twin funnelled "Ring" company paddle tug is alongside her port side forward. A two funnelled paddle tug is on the left with the Tilbury Hotel beyond it. Small skiffs are in the foreground.
