DescriptionView of an octuple scull in the water next to a large dock. There are eight rowers and one coxswain sitting in the boat. Several men sit or stand on the dock, watching. One of them has a pair of binoculars and appears to be looking out towards a smaller boat that is in the middle of the water, with three people sitting in it. The opposite shore is lined with trees.
