House Flags of Hong Kong Shipping Companies 2

This one looks more Korean than from Hong Kong: white with a disc centered. The disc contains a blue outer border, a white inner border and an assymetrical yin-yang-like disc in the interior: a large red field above separated from a smaller blue field by a narrow white wavy disc.
Jorge Candeias, 4 April, 1999

This flag is also apparently that of the South Korean company Boyang Ltd. with any connection being unknown. Fullwin originated 1976 as Full Wind Navigation Co.Ltd. changing in 1979 to Fullwind Maritime Ltd. and then to Fullwin Marine Ltd. in 1987.

Gold Bridge Shipping Ltd.

Hong Kong based Gold Bridge Shipping Ltd is a subsidiary of tanker shipping company BLT (Indonesia) already present on FOTW-ws. Website: http://www.gbship.com/
Founded in 1990 as a joint venture and completely owned by BLT owners BSG Corp. since 1995, the firm’s areas of activity are listed as "shipowner - commercial or ship operator - technical management - ship brokerage and shipping agency - storage tank services - other logistical services" ('Corporate Data' section, upper menu).
Since 1995 also the chemical tanker fleet has been expanded by newbuilds. Currently Gold Bridge is mainly active in East Asia and South East Asia; storage tanks are operated in SW China. In all, ten vessels are listed and described (‘Fleet Lists’).
Shown as a drawing on the website, the house flag(oid) is blue with narrow red stripes horizontally edging the field; white combined - and partly overlapping - initials "GB" appear in the centre, the first letter higher. This design also appears on funnels.

GrandFame Ship Management Ltd.

GrandFame Ship Management Ltd at Hong Kong seem very flag conscious as we are treated to a view of the Chinese flag waving above that of Hong Kong (and a pilot flag thrown in for good measure):
http://www.gfship.hk/eng/index.html and to this nice view of international flags: http://www.gfship.hk/eng/network.html
GrandFame’s house flag, by contrast, appears modestly as a little drawing and - as may be seen on the first page linked to - on a ship’s funnel: blue field with white lozenge, not touching the flag’s edges, bearing blue serifed initials "GF".
The company was founded in 1996. Services offered are ship management and chartering of "all kinds of cargoes", brokerage, consultancy, and agency. A world map on the site (see second page linked to) situating GrandFame’s activities places many house flaglets in East Asia, and one in Greece.

This one is too good not to quote in full (almost), coming from China Sea Marine Trading Co. owned by Steve Bunker & Sharon Bondroff of Gray, Maine, US. Page in question, first item, url followed by extensive quote so credits are due: http://www.chinaseatrading.com/results_flags.php?pageNum_Recordset1=0&totalRows_Recordset1=14&Search=flags_key
"The shipping magn[ate] C.Y. Tung was known as the "Niarcos of the East." He assembled a fleet of 150 large ships and organized the Overseas Orient Line. One of his acquisitions was the old R.M.S. Queen Elizabeth which he renamed the S.S. Seawise University. The idea-- to create a floating university for 800 or so sea-going students.
When I bought this flag I was told that it came off the "Seawise U" in 1972. It's a good story and makes sense but I can't verify it. Anyway, it is a great old C.Y. Tung company house flag in wool bunting, about nine feet long. It has the usual small moth holes but has good color and is sound for display."
Picture taken from clickable photo for the moment named (LUOP): dark blue field bearing a white diamond, fimbriated dark blue, in the centre red entwined initials "CNI" (the "N" inside the "C" and the "I" extending beyond the "C").
Although this photo is much better than the rather poorly (and unidentified) eBay table flag pic I once saw a tiny drawing was found among the sponsors of the HK Maritime Museum.
"Island Navigation Corporation International Ltd" apparently a member of the Tung Group - see quote from: http://www.allcompanyonline.com/company/37/4/15/826632/Island-Navigation-Corporation-International-Ltd.html

Jardine Ship Management Ltd.

Kishinchand Chellaram Maritime Agency Ltd

White flag with two narow stripes in top and bottom and a red D inscribed in a black oval in the middle.

Source: Josef Nüsse
Ivan Sache, 25 August 2002

Kishinchand Chellaram Maritime Agencies Ltd. changed name 1996 to Chelleram Shipping Ltd. and then in 1999 reconstructed into Chelleram Shipping (Hong Kong) Ltd. and K.C. Maritime Ltd. With the change of name Chelleram Shipping have adopted a new flag which can be vied at the Hong Kong Seite 4 of Josef's website. The "D" is on this flag is probably connected with the fleet naming system used where the 1st name is "Darya".
