RAMON DE LARRINAGA preparing to depart Preston 7/5/62 assisted by local tug FRANK JAMIESON. RAMON DE LARRINAGA was one of the largest vessels to visit Preston (Prestonmax?) - size being limited by the entrance locks and presumably she also had to make sure she got the full height of the tide on the Ribble.

Many thanks for posting this shot, I`ve looked/waited for years to see verification of this occasion, which was much talked about when I was with Larrinaga`s. As Stan says it`s not the company funnel colours, but I don`t know who`s either.
Cheers,
David
Larrinaga was associated with Larrinaga y Cía of the Basqure Region maybe that's their funnel colours. remove the back from larrinaga funnel and what's remaining as per photo

Larrinaga funnel colours yellow with two red, not blue bands, of a larger width, there maybe a shield or device on the funnel but can`t make it out, certainly not part of Larrinaga livery.
Cheers,
David
