Hi Sammyopisite
Great pictures you have added there of Sykes Tankers.I notice on the 1st one EVH221L that it has the letters SI on the front o/side wing this was the logo for the Staveley Industries group of companys were they part of that group as well.

Hi Stanfield no it was just their logo I think it was a big “S” with a small g & c or L for "Sykes Group of Company’s Limited " it was all owned by the Sykes family and a very good firm to work for
cheers Johnnie
