Seen from starboard bows; bows only of four vessels are visible, and only the bowsprit of the vessel at left is visible; Wilmer Lee and Joy Parks are identified; others not identifiable. Note: Trailboard on vessel has the name "Wilmer Lee" but no such vessel appears in the List of Merchant Vessels or the Earle File, so we assume the trailboard carver made a mistake.
