The launching of the yacht Capriol from the boat builder Stan Cook.  His boat building premises was the house called the Storehouse on the Quay.The Capriol was built for Dr. Radcliffe. The Lady leaning over is Mrs. Radcliffe and the young lad could be her Son.
Thanks to Tony Forsgate for additional information.

"Capriol" was built for Doctor Radcliffe, probably to his own design. The youn g child doing the launching could have been his son, as the lady leaning over watching is Mrs. Radcliffe
