More about this scene
The name of the small boat, 'Emily', and that of her owner, one T Ley of Porlock Weir, can be readily identified from the stern sheets. The sail, to assist in steering as much as in propulsion, is hanging loosely from the aft mast so that it can dry in the wind. The dock used to take fairly large vessels, but major cargoes have not been worked here since the 1950s.
