A regatta on Lake Merritt, with 11 small sailboats, carrying mainsails only, visible in this photo. Two people are in each boat. The conditions are breezy. Of the three boats in the foreground, two are identified by the names of the skippers: # 2936-Wm. Lane and #3491-Jack Mullin, who apparently came in 4th. Both skippers belong to the S.J.S.C. (San Jose Sailing Club?) A multi-storey residential building dominates the background beyond Lake Merrit, and there many other residential buildings of varying, lesser heights there as well.
