Burgee

[Dublin Bay Sailing Club burgee] image located by Jan Mertens, 17 June 2011

The burgee is shown as a drawing on the webpage, a white horizontal stripe traversing a red field. Rather than attaching this a photo detail is sent instead: see ‘Gallery / 2003 / Wag Downhill 2003’, fourth photo of third row, clickable.

This page bids us welcome to the Dublin Bay Water Wags, “the oldest one design racing class in the world” (Ireland): http://www.waterwag.org. From the ‘History’ section, left menu: founded in 1887, the club pioneered in adopting yachts of the same design in contrast to existing practice. In this way, “yacht racing [was placed] within the reach of many who could not otherwise have enjoyed the sport”. The ‘Design’ section (left menu) shows designs dating from 1887 and 1900.
