Te-ai întrebat vreodată de ce unii marinari își aduc însemnele la apus? Este mai mult decât tradiția. Și cum rămâne cu steagurile de curtoazie, steagurile casei și restul?

Eticheta drapelului cu Tom Cunliffe
I fly a large burgee bent on to a 6 foot pig stick hoisted atop the mainmast on my ketch…as my low tech wind indicator.
A superb post. You’ve certainly put me straight on flag etiquette, thank you Tom 😁
Interesting but this will cause palpitations amongst the pink gin set! I fly a Welsh flag of course. I raise the St George’s cross as a courtesy when visiting England.
I enjoyed this. Back in the day American friends of mine entertained themselves by sailing their 25-footer past anchored ships of the US Navy Pacific Fleet and dipping their ensign in salute. For many years they have dined out on how all the warships, including the mahoosive USS Nimitz, returned the courtesy.
Bless you Tom. Your ensign is super but not as super as the beauty at 1:40!! Now THAT is an ensign!! Your courtesy flag is fab…I've seen courtesy flags being flown that are dismally small…the size of a packet of cigarettes….I call them discourtesy flags. Best wishes from a misty Lulworth, Dorset.
You have to flag if you have gest or crew of a nother nachalty then your flag in the aft downt you. I suppose så that the custard can check passports and stuff. On whit side do you flag the amerikan flag or the Kurdish flag if you have a Kurdish national on board?
Your Culers shows where the ship is from. The Finnish maritan flag has a whit cross in the blu cross on the whit back and it has i interesting history. When Finland was a part of Ryssland ther ships need to flag where they are from so they got permission to flag the marin flag even the national flag was outlawed.
It's also nice to fly the national flags of your crew or visitors on the port side under the spreaders!!
I like flags, tradition and etiquette! Trouble is, that no matter what you do, some old geezer will come up and tell you that you are doing it all wrong! From now on I will refer to this video, as the highest authority. Thanks Tom!
That was really informative thankyou. Love the the local swindler🤣
Well done Tom, we must keep old traditions going. I didn't realise you had such a connection to the 'Old Gaffers Association', it is good to see that flag flying. Happy sailing to you both.
Thank you Tom, thats the way to do it right, see you in the Baltic, greetings from Svendborg
Great post on a good naval tradition with indeed local differences: in Norway you can expect comments when you fly yr ensign after dawn!
Nice video Tom but you never mentioned the quarantine flag and where and when to fly it.🤔🤔🤔🤔
Does the burgee and or Club flags come down at sunset or leave them up overnight- I reckon it goes as the Courtesy flag.
A very good Tuesday evening to you all from Wellington Somerset
Even a small ensign is getting expensive these days. And yes, if it’s out 24/7 it lasts about a year 😉
the pain of tom
A little off topic (yes, I always fly the ensign at the near correct times on board and NEVER a tatty example) is the habit of residents of Denmark (particularly on Jutland) to fly the very long "burgee" from their farmhouse poles. This might be a reaction to the WW2 occupation but I've never asked my hosts. Perhaps you know, Tom.
what if there are no spreaders?
The rule for courtesy flags is: Do the same as with your own colours. Isn't it?
I thought the reason you leave your flag out, especially in quiet anchorages, is to show that being an English yachtsman, your on at least 5 to 1 of chain. It says, piss off and anchor as far away from me as you can! Cant beat plenty of swinging room.
Hi Tom we have learned, when you bring your flag down the terytory country flag where you are also shall brought down. kind regards Alex
Is it still etiquette to dip your ensign for a Royal Naval craft?
Hi Tom, I found the video on the Q flag and have to admit that I have been doing it wrong. A simple explanation that makes sense. Thankyou.
What does one do when one's boat has an unstayed mast (ie. no shrouds or spreaders) as in a junk-rigged boat? Is there an "official protocol"? I would be interested to hear what you or your viewers have to say. Thanks very much.
Good video Mr C. I found points I agree with, and points I differ on.
I do fly a burgee at the spreaders – unless I have the right to fly a flag – ie a flag officer or past commodore. I wish too, that I had the discipline to take the colours up and down – but I find that beyond me every day.
I agree about ensigns however – and the need for a smart one. I don't see the respect in the "shabby chic" habit of wearing a faded pink ensign with a tatty fly and proudly boasting about its 20 years of service. It's just scruffy!
…and yes – nothing worse than a boat in foreign waters that doesn't show its host the respect of a courtesy ensign. In response to a question below – in Brittany, for example, we fly the Tricolore with a Brittany flag beneath it. Why not?
Another way of halving your flag costs is to only get an ensign that could cover half of an entire country 🙂
Excellent video Tom, very interesting as always.
But how do us motorboaters (yes, some of us like to do things properly too) fly courtesy and club flags? It's very difficult on a vestigial mast. I would love to see your video guidance on this.
If you take your ensign down, you should also take the courtesy flag down because there is a rule that says that no flag can be flying if the ensign is not flying. On my side of the Channel at least. Cheers. Love your videos.
i love this stuff, one day i shall have my own yacht and live by this example.
A friend used to call it "putting the Queen to bed" (or King, I suppose, now). It's nice to have a good quality ensign (and courtesy flags), the same as putting on a pair of shoes and clean shirt when clearing in at a foreign port.
Another great and informative video, Tom, thank you. I was just wondering how and where motor yachts flew flags and burgees. Many years ago, sailing from the JSSTC in Black Arrow, we overnighted in Cowes and took our lead from the RYS. When the white ensigns went down, ours followed within seconds.
