The rhino is linked in Mitchell’s account to the African trade. Diamond Land photographs confirm the funnel and angled letters. Nüsse’s table flag and the company logo support the letter slant and a lighter sky blue than Brown’s version. Grey Fox shows a darker funnel than flag, whereas Purple Beach shows both in the lighter shade. Flag photographs do not clearly resolve the lettering, and Nüsse’s old and new images differ in blue.

Mitchell places M683 on the Africa Europe Shipping Line card, possibly in association with Raimol.

Further Mitchell funnel versions are retained. The source cautions that chartered tonnage can have differing basic funnels.
