Crewmembers and officers from an unidentified craft pose on the deck as they manipulate navigational instruments: telegraph, binnacle, wheel, binoculars and sextant. It is apparent that the uniforms they wear are not strictly controlled. This would indicate that it is not a mail ship, where the appearance of crewmembers was carefully maintained.
