On the water near USS Hannibal (AG-1), in 1923. One of the ship's steam launches can be seen between the plane's port wings, apparently preparing to take it in tow.
This aircraft was assigned to assist Hannibal in survey work in Cuban waters. Its Aircraft Record card states that it was converted to a Model 41 Type in about 1922.
