Yacht Charters International: • The yacht charters international 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 charters international 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.
The status of the yacht charters international 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 international ensign may be dipped.See Also Yacht World .com:The following regulations are taken from that portion of the New York yacht world .com Club code entitled yacht world .com 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.
