Brown variously assigns the livery to the parent, John H. Whitaker Ltd. and Tankers. W434 in Brown 1971 reverses the funnel bands to green over red, which Rosanoski presumes an error. W32 follows Brown 1982/1995, with Jarig Bakker credited for the FOTW flag.

Mitchell notes Hoo Venture, probably chartered from R. Lapthorn. W436 is that concern’s funnel with a W added to the star.

W437 is associated with Clyde Venture and Clyde Enterprise on charter to Esso. Neither was located in Lloyd’s or Miramar; they may have been inland vessels.

Mitchell supplies no explanation for W438. Rosanoski suspects a white W in the black circle but notes that it is not specified.

Jaynee W’s starboard photograph of 5 February 2011 shows the pennant pointing forward and apparently less wavy than the logo. Because the view is distant, Rosanoski doubts this rendering.

W440 follows a port-side photograph of Whitonia and a starboard view of Whitavigator at Sydney on 12 November 2010.

W441 is the company’s website flag logo, assumed also to represent an actual flag.
