Baars Shipyard

Baars BV at Sliedrecht was a Dutch shipyard on the Nieuwe Merwede River to the SE of Rotterdam. Website, English version: Founded in 1920 by Arie Baars, the shipyard specialized in barges many of which served the dredging industry: Baars Charter, formerly named ‘A.Baars Exploitatie van Baggermaterieel BV’ (i.e. A.Baars Exploitation of Dredging Equipment) was established to help market these vessels (1925).
1996 however saw the end of shipbuilding when the owners decided to concentrate on leasing and selling whereas Baars Confloat BV was founded to exploit coupling pontoons and other equipment. More on them is found via left menu.

Original image was found in a Marktplaats (Dutch auction site) offer: no. 176391071 by “skipvlag” of Maastricht, accessed 19 Jun 2008, dimensions given as 0.45 [cm] x 0.70 [cm]: White, bearing the logo next to the hoist accompanied by dark blue company name “baars” (lower case letters, no serifs) above light blue place name “SLIEDRECHT” (left aligned, smaller and shorter but upper case, no serifs either).
This logo is a highly stylized anchor, placed diagonally, stock at upper left - relief is suggested by dark blue and light blue design elements. It looms large on this Confloat page (in Dutch – the “flags” on the pontoon at end of page are really panels).
No rectangular flag spotted yet. Above company must not be confused with Baars Engineering, also at Sliedrecht.

Baars was established in 1832. Baars Charter B.V. (Besloten vennootschap) (English: Private company or Limited) specializes in the rental and sale of modular pontoons, dredging containers, such as elevator containers, split barges and hopper barges specially for (contaminated) sludge.

Baars Confloat B.V. (Besloten vennootschap) (English: Private company or Limited) is market leader of modular “containerized” pontoons for many years. The unique modular Confloat system (nut-bolt connection) guarantees absorption of high dynamic and static forces. We have a large number of units available for rental and sale, new and young used. Next to it you can choose for a wide range of mono “hull” pontoons' and offshore Jack-ups consisting of container pontoons for all your heavy equipment.

Although Jan Mertens mentioned on June 8, 2009 in the already mentioned section the following: "No rectangular flag spotted yet. Above company must not be confused with Baars Engineering, also at Sliedrecht" in the end a horizontal (rectangular) flag does exist and also it is most likely that the shipyard is either a business unit of the main company or it is at least operated by it, so it is related.

The flag is a horizontal white background with the logo in the middle.
