I'm happy I'm not in any club, or can sail to "foreign" ports. I'd probably start an incident among the white-whine set by flying the wrong color or logo or something. "What's that?" "A bandanna. Drying." "It's blue with white scrollwork." "And?" "That's very close to the same design fr

Hi Stelios, How about our quest for etiquette, "milking a dead cow"? The other thought was, "it's gone udder up" but I'm pretty sure I just made up that one. Cheers, Russ Sweet 35 mk-1 At 05:34 PM 18/05/2015, Stelios wrote: Here are the proper ones

Re: Stus-List Flag Etiquette - Past Commodore's Flag

So I see two boats each with a club burgee from the same club and each with a commodore's flag??? So which one is really the commodore? Don't you think there would be a rule somewhere that states a past commodore shouldn't fly a commodore's flag. I quit flying my flag officer flag once I was no

Can you cite that rule please sir? I don't believe a PC has to be on 'club business' to identify they are a PC of the club burgee they are flying. Sent from my iPhone > On May 18, 2015, at 15:32, Indigo via CnC-List wrote: > > Thanks for your help. It would seem to make sense to consider the

Re: Stus-List Flag Etiquette - Past Commodore's Flag

I would disagree with that statement. If the boat owner was in fact a commodore and is flying the Past Comm flag along with the club burgee from that club it is fine. Geography has nothing to do with it - especially in CT where you may well have 3 clubs within 1/2 mile of each other. Yes, it

Re: Stus-List Flag Etiquette - Past Commodore's Flag

Thanks for your help. It would seem to make sense to consider the Past Commodores (assuming they completed full term) in the same light as Commodores in which case the flags (or are they burgees) should only be flown in other clubs waters when the officer is on official Club business (which I wo

Hoo boy, The below should read "... an executive member does not qualify as Past Commodore unless he (she) completes the full term (of Commodore). This writing stuff is like "math is hard" too. Cheers, Russ (Alberta people will know what the remark means. :) At 10:24 AM 18/05/2015,

Re: Stus-List Flag Etiquette - Past Commodore's Flag

Hi Jonathan, In a conversation where I mentioned "Past Commodore", I was told by an ex-Naval Officer that once a Commodore always a Commodore. With that in mind, I believe the Past Commodore's burgee should be flown in the same manner as the Commodore's burgee. At our Club an executive membe

I was under the impression that an officer's flag should only be flown when the officer is on board a vessel from his/her yacht club. That is, it should be flown on his/her personal vessel or any other vessel owned by a member of the yacht club for which the officer is a member and only while the

Stus-List Flag Etiquette - Past Commodore's Flag

Could anyone please clarify whether it is proper etiquette for a past-Commodore's flag to be flown day and night on a boat that is moored permanently in the waters of a Club for which the owner of the boat was NOT Commodore. Etiquette rules that I can find are explicit on current Flag officers
