Description
Photograph of sailboats in the ocean, ca.1940. At center, a long, lightly-colored sailboat with a triangular sail can be seen. Three men are visible sitting inside the boat. The main sail is composed of two sections. A large white, right triangle with two numbers extends to the left, while a smaller right triangle with a darkly-colored border extends to the right. To the left, a motorboat and sailboat are visible in the background. To the right, another sailboat is shown tilting in the water. At the horizon, two sailboats are barely visible.
