Mitchell associates J121 with Margot and Margaron, perhaps through later annotations. Rosanoski suggests that the funnel may predate ownership changes or that different emblem colours distinguished the ships. The M and waves might refer to the oil-for-margarine trade, Margarinbolaget, the ship names or a combination. An undated black-and-white Margot photograph shows a light funnel, very narrow dark band and a pale M above waves. Other photographs suggest initial retention of Svea colours followed by a change, but the sequence cannot be dated securely.
Period-specific livery owner unresolved.
