V121

S56, illustrated by Jorge Candeias, is quartered per saltire white and blue. Bakker resolves the difficult original caption as “E.C. Schramm & Co., Bremen”.

V121’s funnel and flag come from Rehm 1956 and 1967. Rosanoski considers the flag suspect without giving a further explanation.

V13’s funnel is documented on Merkur Sea. On Merkur Sky at Port Botany on 10 October 2011, only an exhaust rises from the bridge area; a white panel edged narrowly black at top and bottom bears a blue V. Rosanoski interprets this as the funnel-band panel rather than the customary house-flag panel. Josef Nüsse supplies table-flag examples, and Bakker’s FOTW flag comes from Brown 1995.
