The flag is yellow with a red saltire and a red star in each of the hoist and fly compartments. It belongs to the parent concern, although sources have assigned it to Oceana or to Maranave. The earlier contributed description numbers the star-bearing compartments as first and third.

Rosanoski questions the funnel renderings showing only panels. Brown 1951 supplies no flag, possibly indicating no separate flag at that stage, though he does not establish this. Different funnel bases might relate to subsidiaries. Swiss-ships images show bands stopping short of the panel, unlike Brown.

The funnel has two narrow yellow bands. Mitchell’s version outlines the panel in red.

Five yellow stars decrease in size while angling upwards. Celerina’s portside and General Guisan’s starboard photographs show mirrored arrangements, with the stars rising towards the stern. This form appears to be confined to bulk carriers.

St-Cergue at Port Botany and Sils provide opposite-side evidence for this funnel, which appears to be used on container ships.

Nyon at Lyttelton confirms the band edging beside the panel. A September 2006 photograph instead shows S1365, indicating a change.
