Doh....so it was the vessel....
Unfortunately the Spitfire Int'l book gives only very general details about this aircraft in Portuguese service. What I did forget to mention was that Escadrille XZ moved to Tancos soon after they received their first Spitfires.

Fully possible, but what is on that web site is a straight copy from the book with possibly added small details.
