I was searching all the web to find a photo of this former ship of ours (we owned it as Ocean Wood) as being laid up in Italy and I could not find one... She was a very lucky vessel.. She was bought from Italians...and finally after 2 or 3 owners after us...She is again in Italy and gearless as I see!!

Trying to puzzle out painted-over names can often prove quite troublesome (especially as we see the same thing differently). Anyway, I think that Ames has indeed the right one.
For corroboration, I found an IMO/ILO paper listing examples of ships which were abandoned with their crews. It includes:
FLASH
Cambodia flag
IMO 6723800
Abandoned 6 Oct 2004 at Augusta, Sicily

I have to agree with Arnes, compare to photos of DARIL (IMO 6904416). That vessel is a possibility, as it's original name was VIGSNES, which seems to match up with the letters on the hull better than the sisters I've been able to find, and it was last photographed with a yellow funnel.
Kind Regards, Kyle

One of previous painted-over names seems to end in ---AGE.
Do you have any other or bigger images of this one?
