This is now available as a Wentworth wooden jigsaw puzzle under Royal puzzles and was a top ten best seller. There is an eclectic mix of 80 boats in this work including the Gloriana, the Royal rowboat and the Spirit of Chartwell, the Queen's barge with the Royal Family seen waving to the crowds under the canopy. In the distance are the Dunkirk small boats and the MTB 102 torpedo boat used to rescue shot down spitfire pilots during WW2. Also taking part in the procession, and can be seen in this painting, are a contingent of boats carrying commonwealth flags, Sir Donald Campbells Boat (Bluebird), Fire Boat, RNLI lifeboat, Viking and dragon boats and a New Zealand Maori war canoe wearing traditional Maori feather cloaks.
