Description: | A slight drawing showing on the left a port quarter view of a flute with half-lowered topsails aback, lying to an anchor with the cable veered right out. On the right is a port bow view of another flute approaching on the starboard tack under mizzen and main topsail, with her lowered fore topsail aback and fore course shaking.
This is an unsigned pencil drawing by the Younger. It is of doubtful date, according to Robinson, but is judged by its subject to belong to this period.
