If you are a member of a Royal Yacht Club are you allowed to fly a blue ensign?

If the club is entitled to one, and the club grant you a warrant (restrictions of minimum size of boat etc), then yes

Re: And
- at one stage anyway if not now the yacht had to be registered eg Part 1 and also a certain tonnage.
If ownership is shared, all owners have to be Club members. Whenevr the warrant holder is not in command (on it or near ie in the pub or Club) then the blue cannot be flown, it must have a red.
Also, no commercial advertising of any sort is allowed

Royal Clubs can fly a "Defaced Ensign" if they have been granted a warrant and the member's boat meets the condition of that warrant (usually size and ownership) - it can be red or blue, depending on the club.

Non defaced ensign is awarded by warrent for RNSA skippers. Defaced for Royal Yacht Clubs.

Re: Fraid not necessarily so....
Certain Clubs (one of which I am a member you may not be surprised to know) fly undefaced blues. Other less "senior" clubs (Oh boy I suspect trouble now) fly defaced blus and others still, fly defaced reds but there are also exceptions e.g (I think I'm right in saying) the RAFYC flys a defaced blue OR a sky blue defaced - or that may be commissioned RAF officers only.
must go and look it up again methinks

Lights blue touch paper, and......

Re: Korrekt
Absolutely Brendan
The TWO most senior clubs are HM's Royal Navy (when in comission) and the RYS who, as you say, fly the white. I would imagine Her Majesty's personal standard doesn't count as an ensign esle.....
How about "some of the more senior Clubs..." as there are quite a few less senior -har har har, tiddly pop etc, fumble with cravat as unable to tie it properly, "Two large gins my man"......
