Updated Flag Code for Recreational Boats
Author Last Post
I have one extra white pennant for any NonSpin Cruising boat that would like it.  Cost would be $10.

I know we are not required to display class flags in our HHSA races, but I encourage participants to display their class flags.

I think it would help new racers know who is in their division. It could help non-spin boats get out of the starting area for spin boats during the starting sequence. It would also help skippers know who is in their division for tactics.

In addition, I'd like to share the recommended use of flags in general on recreational boats. Including, placement of the U.S. national ensign.
