A wooden oar or pole is visible diagonally across the frame, and a blue and white cooler sits in the foreground of the boat's deck.

    A temporary steering system made by Coast Guard Cutter Kiska engineers was used to escort the motor vessel Mellow Yellow back to port, March 3, 2013 approximately six miles off the Big Island of Hawaii. Kiska crewmembers responded to the disabled boat after receiving a report stating the Mellow Yellow had a steering malfunction. Kiska engineers boarded the Mellow Yellow and made temporary repairs to assist the crew by making a rudder system out of wood and rope. Kiska crewmembers remained aboard and escorted the Mellow Yellow back to shore and completed a post search and rescue boarding. (U.S. Coast Guard photo)

    A large vessel or ship is undergoing maintenance or refit work in a dry dock or shipyard. The upper superstructure is encased in white shrink-wrap or protective sheeting, while the lower hull area is surrounded by scaffolding covered with black mesh netting. The work appears to be an active industrial operation under clear blue skies.
    A worker is photographed in what appears to be a shipyard or dry dock environment, standing beneath the hull of a large vessel. The worker is equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment including a yellow hard hat, safety goggles, and a dust/respirator mask, and is wearing a blue coverall suit. Scaffolding and structural metal supports are visible in the background.

    A man wearing a red survival/immersion suit and sunglasses sits on the stern of a small motorboat underway on open blue ocean. The boat is equipped with two outboard motors (including a visible Honda 90) and fishing rods mounted in rod holders. The wake behind the vessel indicates the boat is traveling at speed.

    The image is taken from the stern deck of a large vessel, looking aft over open ocean. Two smaller boats are visible in the ship's wake — one appears to be a small motorboat and the other a rigid inflatable boat (RIB) with at least one person aboard. The scene suggests a maritime operation, possibly a law enforcement boarding, search and rescue, or vessel interdiction.
