According to Adrian Strickland writing in 1992 (A Look at Malta Insignia),
"... ferries that run from Malta to the sister island of Gozo, wear the house
flag of the Gozo Channel Company, parted horizontally
white-blue-yellow-blue-white, with a dark blue company logo of three hills
standing upon a barry-wavy of white and blue in the centre." The logo is
seen painted on a ship.
