It therefore does not includes the names of some large owners of shipping property, or form a true indication of the extent to which others are interested in shipping. When a ship recorded in the Register Book as owned by an individual or a group of two or more individual owners, with the addition of the name of a manager or managers, it is entered in the name of the managers only, no reference being made to the owning company.".
