Paul Stubing referred to this photograph as boats in the harbor.
The caption on the back reads, "Southwest Harbor, Maine, From Beal's Wharf".
Four lobster boats are tied up in the foreground of the picture. Two of the hull ID#s are completely visible, 1C672 and 1-K-218. There are two people headed for the float's bridge on the center right. There is a man in "khaki clothing" holding on to a launch with a rolled up canvas awning. In the center of the picture is a sloop tied up to a float. Off her bow are three sardine carriers rafted together.
