The Leica Telyt-R 400mm f/6.8 is a long-focus, two-element lens.
By adding a Canon EF 2x extender, the effective focal length is doubled to 800mm, but this also reduces the maximum aperture by two stops, resulting in an effective aperture of f/13.6
The tripod mounting compensate for that 😊

The large wooden wheel is the device used by the helmsman to control the direction of the sailboat.
It is connected via a system of either ropes, chains, or hydraulics to the rudder, which is the underwater blade that actually steers the boat 😊❤️
