The painting features two types of traditional Dutch vessels: a wijdschip and a kaag, both under sail in gentle, almost imperceptible winds.

The wijdschip, a broad and sturdy cargo vessel, and the kaag, a smaller and more agile boat, are depicted with Cooke's characteristic attention to detail and accuracy. The artist's profound understanding of nautical architecture and his ability to render the subtleties of light and water are evident in this piece. The sails of the ships are lightly billowed, indicating the faintest of breezes, while the water's surface is calm, reflecting the soft light of the sky.
