GAZOCEAN.

The house flag is dark blue with a curved white dolphin detailed or outlined in black and emitting a red flame. Loughran reproduces the emblem in detail from an official 1970 drawing, which Rosanoski assumes may date the flag. Nüsse’s newer table-flag image gives a better blue.
This funnel is recorded for the chartered Max Planck, built in 1992.
The Brigham slide is thought to show Fridjof Nansen at Brisbane in August 1970. The vessel belonged to A.I. Langfeldts, but the underlying funnel colours are not that owner’s. The flame points forwards on the starboard funnel, perhaps indicating a mirror image of the port side. The tail is smaller than the official version and does not curve back over the body.
