Paul Stubing indicated that this photograph was taken from Manset near the "Dutch House" looking toward Southwest Harbor. There are several rowboats tied up to a float. One skiff is upright on the float. There are two motorboats tied to the float. The one on the right of the photo resembles a work boat. The one to the far side of the bridge is a motor launch.
