How to move text up in a table

I currently have a table that looks like this: http://s8.postimg.org/gybzti0rn/Screen_Shot_2015_02_27_at_1_30_23_PM.png

I want to move the description of the boat up to the top of the image. I tried using valign="top", but this moved the description to the very top of the table, where the boat name is.

Here is my HTML:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

  
<table border ="1">

<tr>

    <th> Boat Name </th>

  <th rowspan="2">Description</th>

  </tr>

  <tr>

    <td><img src="boatimage.png"></td>

  </tr>      

</table>

Thanks in advance for the help!

use CSS

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<style>

div {

        position: relative;

        left: 10px;

        top: 30px;

        color: yellow;

}

</style>

</head>

<body>

 <table border ="1">

<tr>

    <th> Boat Name </th>

  <th rowspan="2">Description</th>

  </tr>

  <tr>

    <td>

        <div>Boat Name</div>

        <img src="testimage.jpg" height="200px">

        </td>

  </tr>

</table>

</body>

</html>

change 'left' and 'top' in the CSS to position the text correct.

I uses color yellow because my testimage has a dark color.... ;)
