This photograph is taken from inside the shopping and entertainment centre, Ocean Terminal, looking to the north towards the visitor attraction, The Royal Yacht, Britannia.

In the foreground is the Scottish Fisheries Protection Vessel, Sulisker, built on the Clyde by Ferguson Shipbuilders, Port Glasgow, in 1981.

Upper left, close to the entrance to the harbour are two tugs.

The island of Inchkeith (now owned by Tom Farmer) is in the centre of the picture.

In the background are two large ships in the shipping channel near the Fife coast of the Firth of Forth.
