The green flag bears intertwined white SF letters separated by the field; Rosanoski holds an actual example. Wanaka’s buff funnel, matching its deckhouse, is described with a green S intertwined with a red F, though whether the letters touch is unstated. RJT instead recalled a teal-blue S on stone or dark cream in 1986. Wanaka’s different blue-and-green research flag was later identified as the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries flag during a charter, rather than Skeggs livery. Pacifica ships flew the Skeggs flag alongside their own from December 1985, with interruptions, until surveys in January 1991; it continued over the Lyttelton office.

Cordella was recorded at Lyttelton on 24 January 1988 with a white flag bordered dark blue and bearing white Skeggs lettering on a dark-blue panel. The panel’s shape is uncertain: it may have followed the letters as shading or an outline.
