Two men, wearing flat caps, stand on the left of the boat and the third, wearing a hat with a bobble, stands on the right. Part of the nets are strewn across the sand at the back of the boat. There is a corner of a large rock on the left. The open Sea behind stretches to the horizon, where it meets the vast sky. About half of the photo is sky.
