When we visit another country we fly the New Zealand flag from our stern (back). We fly the red ensign. While visiting Fiji we fly the Fijian flag on the starboard (right) side of our mast. If we had Fijian crew it would be on the port (left) side.
Hi Leroy, I liked the photos of the flags. Also the information about where they should be flown on the boat was interesting. If you picked up an officer from the NZ Navy, would it be appropriate to fly the NZ white ensign? If so, on which part of the boat?
Jim is going to write you a message about this interesting post about flags. We are just working out how to send it. back to you soon.

Hi Leroy. Do you have a flag ready for when you go to New Caledonia? Do you get to hoist that flag up the mast?
ReplyDeleteYes we will have to fly the French flag once we get near new cal, it goes up our mast.
DeleteVery cool! I hope you are all having a great time! Juliette and Nick
ReplyDeleteHi Leroy. Why do you fly the red flag not the blue one. Jacqui, Finn and Max
ReplyDeleteIts because of our ship registration.
