DescriptionA fleet of 22-footers racing towards Fort Denison in a light Sou'Easterly. The only boat that can be identified is VIGILANT which carried the P&O house flag as insignia. The two boats with triangles are probably FIGTREE and PLOVER. PLOVER was not built until1898, and the 22-footers did not race again in a fleet this big after 1899 (IS).
