In the harbor of Monaco in 1954, two motor yachts are moored side-by-side. On the left is the *Shemara*, owned by Sir Bernard and Lady Norah Docker, with guests visible on its upper deck. To the right is the *Huong Giang* (River of Scents), formerly the *Maid Marion*, which belonged to Emperor Bao-Dai of Vietnam. Both vessels feature classic designs with high, pointed bows and long hulls punctuated by rows of portholes, their forms reflected in the calm, rippling water.
