FRESH CARRIERS CO. LTD.

White Castle was photographed at Wellington on 9 August 2003. The funnel was initially unidentified; subsequent information connected it with a charterer, while RGT suggested a Japanese-owned reefer concern.

Atlantic Erica on 23 December 2011 shows a variation: its two bands are hidden in a side view but run around the back, and other photographs also show them at the front. They look dark blue or black in shadow, but other views confirm the normal light-blue shade.

Shinano Reefer at Sydney in June 2007 had blue bands stopping short of the funnel ends. JB later identified the markings as Fresh Carriers’. The vessel was managed by Faith Maritime; because the detail did not agree with Lloyds, Rosanoski assumes a charter. A photograph of the chartered Copinhue at Wellington on 20 August 2004 confirms this version.
