S1103, also recorded under Mitsui OSK Lines, is based on Baizo photographs from 2005 and 2008. JB initially described the “E”-like logo as very dark green, while photographs looked black, and later confirmed black with a Port Botany photograph of 19 February 2008. The same logo was recorded on the earlier Zorca. Rosanoski suggests it could instead be a stylised “V” or “VE”, reflecting Vanguard’s beneficial ownership, and perhaps explaining its retention after listing under Asahi Marine. This interpretation remains tentative.
