Key: A. Canot Negres de Manfro qui Conduisent des Esclaves a bord: Neger-Kanoos van Manfro, die Slaaven aan Boord brengen.
The fort in the foreground is probably not the fort at Manfro, but Fort Nassau at Moure. Manfro, or actually Princes Town, lies on the opposite side of Elmina, seen from Cabo Corso.
