A249 records the original livery. William G. Walkley confirms the funnel, except that the white band is shown wholly at the hoist and fly ends in the NJK account.

The original flag described in the FOTW comment is a diagonal triband from lower hoist to upper fly, red, white and blue, with red “AMPOL” along the white band at the same angle. The comment attaches A251 for this design.

A250’s funnel is recorded for P.J. Adams and appears peculiar to that vessel. Its flag is assumed.

A368 first appeared on Ampol Sarel in 1979. It differs slightly from Jarig Bakker’s Brown 1995 version, A652. Bob Tompkins reported several intermediate changes, but died before publishing them; his scattered records may have left those stages unrecoverable. The source cites the latest illustration as August 1997 in its comment but August 1987 in the accompanying discussion and bibliography.
