Yacht "Istros". In the background U.S. Navy minesweepers USS "Exploit" (MSO-440) and USS "Fearless" (AM/MSO-442). Monaco harbor 1955.
The classic motor yacht "Istros" is seen from a high angle, moored in the bustling harbor of Monaco in 1955. Registered in Monrovia, the vessel flies an American flag from its stern, a gangplank extending from its aft deck. In the background, beyond other pleasure craft, lie two U.S. Navy minesweepers: the USS "Exploit" (MSO-440) and the USS "Fearless" (MSO-442). The steep, building-lined hillside rises above the quay, completing the Mediterranean scene.
