Bildbeschreibung: Norddeutscher Lloyd Frachtschiff TS Nabob, Blick aus der Steuerbord Brückennock auf das Vorschiff mit den offenen Luken 3, 2 und 1. - Stb. an Deck und auf dem Deckshaus Hafenarbeiter bei ihrer verantwortlichen, nicht ungefährlichen Arbeit. - Außerdem Stb. an Deck zahlreiche Holzlukendeckel, Stauholz und Scherstöcke. - Querab Luke 2 auf beiden Seiten sog. Logs (Baumstämme) als Deckslast mit Drähten und Spannschrauben festgelascht. - Vorn bei Luke 1 auf Stb. weitere Lukendeckel, auf Backbordseite eine größere Partie Bretter die als sog. Garnier (Unterlage und Separation) für andere Ladung wie Kisten, Kartons, Fässer, Sackgut usw. in den Laderäumen benötigt wurde. - Weiter im Bild zahllose Drähte, Leinen, Stroppen, Preventer, Aufhohler, Geien, Blöcke und Tampen. All die hier genannten und auf dem Foto zu sehenden Teile waren neben vielen anderen für einen reibungslosen Lade- und Löschbetrieb auf einem Frachtschiff der damaligen Zeit erforderlich. - Auf weitere bauliche Erfordernisse zu denen neben den Ladebäumen natürlich auch die Ladewinden nebst Winschtrommeln gehören so wie die Partunen und Spannschrauben die den Masten Halt geben und diverse Laderaumlüfter sei nur am Rande verwiesen. - Auf der Pier neben Hafenmüll, alte Paletten und Langeisen in Bündeln so wie Transportfahrzeuge und zwei Gabelstapler. - Ein typisches "port-Ambiente" der damaligen Zeit, das in den meisten grossen Häfen der Welt ganz ähnlich ausgesehen hat. - Man beachte, zur damaligen Zeit wurden keine Schutzhelme getragen.
