Thanks to all for the response to the picture (and I take my hat off to you all, with some awe as to your deep seated knowledge of such nautical things), but what about the real deep feeling I personally got from seeing what I thought was a wonderful pictorial representation of the scene so wonderfully portayed by AR in CC & BS? Did anyone else get this feeling too? The serenity of Horning in those days seems to me perfectly expressed in the pic, and a sure location of a tranquil Coot's nest (sorry to be a non-techie where sister-hooks are concerned!).
Surely this is the sort of scene AR & Genia looked out over in the early thirties (and no Hullabaloos in sight)?
