LYKIARDOPULOS.

The star’s size varies. Rosanoski’s notes favour L51, supported by Spartia in February 2005; US Navy 1961 assigns its funnel to Cephalonian Maritime. Bakker’s flag follows the Caltex book.

The earlier Lloyds 1904 flag was quartered yellow and black with black N and L in the yellow quarters. Lloyds 1912 changes to white with a red star; Sache’s L307 records the later flag.

Jordan describes a black Cephalonian funnel bearing the house flag without specifying the flag, apparently referring to Lykiardopulo’s. Merchant Ships instead photographs Nicolas D.L. with the L50 arrangement and does not mention this version.

L50’s band may actually be a panel which appears continuous because of the funnel’s width. Merchant Ships gives L308 as an alternative; its Nicolas D.L. photograph, identified as Cephalonian’s vessel, appears to show a panel spanning the visible width. The band/panel interpretation remains uncertain.
