The men in the middle have just viewed a rescue ship; one points it out to another, and an African crew member, Jean Charles, stands on an empty barrel and frantically waves his handkerchief to draw the ship's attention.
Os homes no medio acaban de divisar un barco de rescate: un deles coméntallo a outro, e un membro da tripulación africano, Jean Charles, ponse de pé nun barril baleiro e axita freneticamente un pano para chamar a atención do navío.
