We use a 400 denier nylon cloth that is UV treated on both sides. We buy our cloth direct from the Mill and are the only known supplier that offers UV treatment on both sides of the cloth. Our cloth is also treated for mildew protection. The burgee pattern is cut out using our 25 watt laser cutters and sewn on both sides simultaneously, appliqué style. We double hem the burgees and use double and triple stitching in all wear points. The hoist band is a polypropylene strap with two brass star grommets for attachment. The heavy-duty hoist band and star grommets prevent the burgee from being torn apart by strong crewmembers. We challenge you to find a better quality burgee. These flags are designed to withstand a marine environment and are by far the highest quality flags on the market today. Indicated flags are in stock and can ship today, others are made to order and ship in 4 weeks.

BURGEES, ENSIGNS, FLAGS and PENNANTS
By Judy Hills, ACBS roving reporter, member of RDC Triangle Chapter
Have you ever given thought to the burgees, ensigns, flags and pennants that we fly on our boats? Did you consciously select yours or did you just copy what you saw someone else doing? What do you know about nautical flag etiquette and usage? This article addresses this topic.
According to the US Power Squadron, “Flags are often too small…The national ensign flown at a flag staff on the stern of your boat should be one inch on the fly (long end) for each foot of overall length.”
Flag —One class of flags is called the “international maritime signal flags.” According to Wikipedia, there is a signal flag “for each letter of the alphabet, and pennant for numerals. Each flag (except the R flag) has an additional meaning when flown individually, and they take on other meanings in certain combinations.” For more information on the meanings of international maritime signal flags click on this link: http://www.marinewaypoints.com/learn/flags/flags.shtml It is more common to see the international maritime signal flags displayed on sailboats than pleasure power boats.
Did you know?
- The word for the scientific study of the history, symbolism and usage of flags is vexillology.
- The position of honor on a ship is the quarterdeck at the stern of a ship, and thus ensigns are traditionally flown either from the ensign staff at the ship’s stern, or from a gaff rigged over the stern.
- The general rule that no flag is flown higher than the national flag does not apply onboard a ship. A flag flown at the stern is always in a superior position to a flag flown elsewhere on the ship, even if the latter is higher up. (Wikipedia—maritime flag).
- If you take your boat to international or foreign waters, the traditional United States ensign should be flown.
- You should avoid flying more than one ensign from a single halyard or antenna.
- Massachusetts and Maine are the only two states with their own maritime flags (special versions of the state flags for use afloat).
- There is an international burgee registry. http://www.burgees.com/burgeeframe.htm
- To learn more about maritime flag etiquette: http://www.usps.org/f_stuff/etiquett.html
- If you are into vexillology and want to see some really weird flag designs, check out https://www.reddit.com/r/vexillology/ or click here to see vexillology Youtube videos. Click here to check out the National Maritime Museum’s historical collection of flags.
So, having a little fun with our vexillology topic, if you or your ACBS Chapter were to design a flag, what would it look like?
Send your pictures, reports, announcements, and boat biographies to [email protected]
Nice informative piece, thx. One concern: I recently ordered and attempted to fly the ACBS burgee on my ’55 Chris-Craft Continental 22′ and discoverd that the height measurement (~13″) is way too long for my canted mast (pins are about 9″ apart). Has ACBS considered a more “runabout” size for a burgee?
I contacted the company that we purchase the burgees from. The company offers a 10″ size which should place the grommet holes about 9″ apart. If you would like me to order one for you, let me know if you prefer cotton or nylon and slanted or straight. The cost is $39.
This added information came from Gene Porter: “Your yacht ensign info is inaccurate or remiss in that it fails to note that the yacht ensign must never be flown in international or foreign waters since it has no standing as a national ensign. [from the Power Squadron web site]
This is particularly applicable in such areas as the Thousand Islands where US boats frequent Canadian waters, too often flying illegal flags.
Thank you, Gene. One of the advantages of being in this organization is that information is shared from many sources. The website committee invites comments and discussions. It helps us all be more informed.
I fly the flag and ensign that was actually shipped from Century in June of 1959 when my Gray V8 powered 16 ‘ Resorter was delivered to Ithaca NY, she has only had two owners and moved 15 miles North still on Cayuga l and is now used mostly for sunset rides, she saw many hours as a competition ski boat as her original owner was a skier for many years she has also made the trip from Sodus Bay NY across Lake Ontario to the St. Lawrence seaway twice a year for many years to his cottage on the St Lawrence.
Great article but I believe you left out an important fact about the U S ensign. Congress in 1914 or 1916, please don’t hold me to the dates, pasted a law that made the United States Power Squadrons flag an official flag for U S yachts. Bob Korts Member USPS since 1960.
Did you know original ensign flags had sewn stars not embroidered stars like we see today. The stars were cut out of fabric and sewn around the edges.

Burgee Exchange
The burgees are on display above the bar in our clubhouse.
It is traditional for yacht clubs to exchange burgees during the first visit by one yacht club to the other. It is the desire that our club continue this tradition. If you are planning to visit a yacht club with whom we have not yet exchanged burgees, be sure to take a SGYC burgee with you to exchange.
As we exchange with a club, we will post the photo of their burgee on these pages. Please review this list to be sure you are not exchanging with a club we have already visited. This list is in alphabetical order for easy review.
If you require a burgee to present, you can obtain one by contacting the Commodore or Shipstore. Please allow yourself plenty of time to schedule the pickup of your burgee.
When you visit a club, bring one of our burgees with you. Tell the person who greets you that you are interested in exchanging burgees with their club. They may perform the exchange at that time or they may put you in touch with one of their officers. If you are visiting the club during an event, they may even make the exchange as part of the presentations at the event. If you are calling ahead to advise them you are going to visit their club, it would be appropriate to mention at that time that your are interested in exchanging burgees.

Rostov hold on to get off the mark against PSV
Wednesday, September 28, 2016
Article summary
Rostov picked up their first ever point after an absorbing contest in which PSV twice cancelled out Dmitri Poloz goals before Davy Pröpper had a spot kick saved and hit the bar.
Article top media content
Article body.
Rostov are off the mark in their first UEFA Champions League campaign after a topsy-turvy Group D encounter with PSV Eindhoven ended all-square.
Dmitri Poloz twice put the Russian hosts in front during an action-packed first half but each time the visitors pegged them back, Luuk de Jong making it 2-2 seconds before the interval.
PSV had the better chances after the restart, the best falling to Davy Pröpper, scorer of their first equaliser. The midfielder had a penalty saved by Soslan Dzhanaev and was a whisker away from making amends with a shot from outside the box that struck the bar. It fell into Dzhanaev's arms, however, and he and Rostov held on.
- Group D standings
Key player: Dmitri Poloz (Rostov) Together with strike partner Sardar Azmoun, Poloz proved too hot to handle for the five-man PSV defence, especially in the first half. His finish for the first goal was composed, his second beautifully executed. Supply was more limited in the second period, but by then the 25-year-old Russian international had already done enough to earn a point for his team.
Rostov struggling to fill defensive hole Both sides were guilty of defensive frailties, and Rostov will be desperately disappointed to have lost a lead not once, but twice in quick succession. The UEFA Champions League is proving to be a tough learning curve for the Russian club, though in their defence – pun intended – they have had the heart literally ripped from them, with Ivan Novoseltsev and Bastos both departing since their campaign began in late July.
PSV cut Rostov's supply line You could say it was a classic game of two halves. Rostov looked sharper before the break, and probably felt aggrieved not to go into half-time with a lead. However, PSV managed to nullify the supply to the Russians' front men after the restart, and then started attacking with increasing regularity. Pröpper was always dangerous, while substitute Steven Bergwijn was a real handful.

Cheelche is a Chikanti Xenos currently in the employ of Inquisitor Rostov . Sometimes confused for an Abhuman among the Imperials, Cheelche is blunt and rude, disrespecting even Space Marines.
