I think that's a very good point .
We met someone just the other day who said they join the CA just to get a blue one ,
I didn't know the CA give them out to their members .
Maybe worth joining for the flag , Na maybe not ,
I Like my red duster.

CA members are entitled to wear a blue ensign by charter as a thank you for services rendered in WW2. It is defaced with an anchor logo. I am a long term member but choose to wear the red.

CA does not give them away, they cost a bomb.

St Nazaire

After recent takeover, harbourmaster and reception far less friendly than before, Visiting yachts report adverse comments, vandalism, summary execution. If visiting, recommended approach is after dark, showing no lights. HLA: "Brown Mouse". Third lamp post along, Rue Victor Hugo, whistle ten bars of "The Can-Can" and wait, making no sudden movements.

Too bad it's not a blue herring. That would really have triggered the OP's inverted snobbery.

His blue wasn't defaced but that was his burgee- what club is tha

Is this the equivalent of a towel reserving a sun lounger.

Like many above have said the colour of the ensign is a red herring.

Yes well what if it was a White Ensign then ?

You never know who you might be upsetting, eh ?

That's hilarious. So his burgee WAS a blue herring, as well as his ensign allegedly being a red herring?!

That's the flag of Scheveningen, the maritime district of the Hague in the Netherlands.
