A stationary camera looks diagonally across a racetrack toward the infield showing the horses as they pass. Once the horses have passed the camera it is clear that the race has come to an end and there is a close finish between three horses. Once the race is over police officers run onto the field. The camera also displays various members of the audience moving around.

The film opens with a shot of the North Sea Canal with a winged statue on the far side. Three men row towards the shore in a small rowing boat while a small boy waits on the quayside and then turns to face the camera.

Une mer forte lance de puissantes lames à l’assaut de la digue de Douvres. Le film, prévu pour être visionné individuellement sur les kinétoscopes contrefaits, est enregistré certainement entre 30 et 40 images par seconde, ce qui, par la suite avec les appareils de projection qui tournent à l'époque à 16 images par seconde, donne un rendu impressionnant, dû au ralenti .

Three fishing boats are seen leaving the harbour at Great Yarmouth. Only the tail end of the first is seen as it leaves the harbour to the right. The second (named "Thrive" and registered as YH 120) is pulled by a steam paddle tugboat. A third fishing boat (named "I Will" and registered as YH 723) sails off-screen to the right.
