The same problem would exist.

The problem is not that markings were unavailable, or even that the tanks 
wern't marked.

The problem was the "standard" that they were marked to.

No one agrees on a single standard, (as demonstrated by the various 
marking conventions mentioned here), and the captain had air in marked 
tanks.

I see three problems. One is education regarding responsibility, two is 
the "standard" for marking tanks, (although I admit that I'll probably 
refuse to honor any "standard") and three is the trogs who don't let 
marked tanks on their boats, or won't fill marked tanks with air.
