English: First boat race on the Mersey between cadets of HMS Conway and HMS Worcester, 11 June 1891, Charles W Wyllie (1859-1923)
Immediately to the right is the Conway herself. Cadets are lining the decks and are in the rigging and on the yards cheering on their shipmates. Behind Conway are three further training ships, Indefatigable, Akbar and Clarence. The vessels were moored off the Wirral shore between New Ferry and Rock Ferry and the pier for the ferry boats at Rock Ferry can be seen in the far right hand distance.
