Write a detailed description of a serene scene outside a pier with rope, an oak barrel, and cork buffer pads.
assistant
Coils of rope and discarded buoys spill out of a large oak barrel that rests upon the smooth boards of the pier, the container positioned beneath a large white sign that reads \"Pier 1 - Slips 6-10.\" Several steps lead down to a finger pier that has docking slips in it, each lined with cork buffer pads. A gentle breeze filters through the air and carries with it the salty scent of the sea.
