A horizontally oriented etching in black ink depicts two sailboats moving right across choppy water. In the foreground, horizontal, undulating lines create dark, textured waves. A small, flagged buoy floats at the far left. The overlapping sails are rendered with fine diagonal hatching. The sky is filled with dense, parallel diagonal strokes descending from the upper left. A handwritten signature, "Wm. Steeple Davis," is inscribed in the bottom right margin.
