Westgate Transport Ltd. When the NZ ports were privatized in 1988 that in New
Plymouth being the main "gateway" on the North Island adopted the name of
Wetsgate Transport Ltd. The roughly 1x2 white flag had a panel in the hoist [see
image of Westgate panel] of a teal or dull green with narrow
black rings and a cross of red with half arrow heads [left side only]. The black
rings were thicker in an uneven shape on the fly side, and this darkening
represented the Taranaki coast line against the lighter sea with the "cross" the
main compass points and is best appreciated at a distance. In the fly on the
flag was the black legend "Westgate". The flag was sighted and photographed in
1994.

Westport Coal Co. Ltd. began shipowning in 1883 withdrawing 1887 and then
re-entering 1903 until 1940. Sea Breezes 6/1979 shows a red flag with the black
letters "WCC" whereas The Log 11/1987 gives a red flag with a narrow black
saltire and the white letters "WCCL". If both are
correct then presumably the latter was the replacement.
