C885 is documented by Jean Randier’s Grands Voiliers Français and appears on FOTW under Ballande & Fils of New Caledonia. Rosanoski assumes C884 likewise relates to sailing ships, although Randier lists no vessels for the company.
Ships on the European route, including Saint Andre, used C881. Those trading between Noumea, Saigon and Australia used C882.
This livery is given for Saint Francois in 1913–21. The funnel base colour is not stated, but Rosanoski reads the hatching as light red.
