Yacht Charters Bahamas: The status of the yacht charters Bahamas ensign (13 stars in a circle around an anchor on a blue field) is not spelled out clearly, but since the law specifically covers only the flag of the United States, the assumption has been made that the yacht charters Bahamas ensign may be dipped.
The following regulations are taken from that portion of the New York yacht charters Bahamas Club code entitled yacht charters Bahamas Routine. These deal with salutes, boats (meaning tenders and dinghies), and general courtesies. Other sections of the code, not given here, relate primarily to the display of flags, signaling, and lights.See Also Yacht Plans:Safe boating practices minimize the danger of accidents afloat; indeed, recreational boating is one of the safest of all participant sports.

On The Other Hand See Yacht Weddings:• The yacht weddings Ensign has the same 13 stripes, but with a fouled anchor in a circle of 13 stars in the union rather than 50 stars. Originally, it was to be flown in addition to the U.S. ensign to designate a yacht weddings documented by the Coast Guard; now, however, it is seen on recreational craft of all types and sizes instead of the 50-star flag. It should not be flown in international or foreign waters where the national flag is required. The locations and hours are the same as for the 50-star flag.
When a flag officer makes an official visit, his flag, if senior to that of the yacht weddings visited, shall be displayed in place of the burgee while he is on board. A yacht weddings may display the personal flag of a national, state, or local official when such an individual is on board, or the national ensign of a distinguished foreign visitor. This flag should be displayed in place of the private signal or officer's flag for the President of the United States, and in place of the burgee for all other officials and visitors.
