Can anyone tell me what this pennant represents? Discovered on boat.

Yes! Thank you. I failed in searching the image but their site shows this pennant.

That's interesting, I did not know there was one in Canada as well.

I would have called it a burgee.

IIRC RVYC members are entitled to wear a defaced Red Ensign

Yes I do RC. It's on the website

But only if they have been issued with a license! Special ensigns may only be worn when the boat is under the command of the license holder and the appropriate club ensign must be flown.

Oh no! You've been and gone and done it! Any moment now the anti-special ensign class warriors will stagger out from under their shoulder chips and we'll all be doomed!

We know and it is the club burgee which must be flown.
